Keep your codebase clean with Git hooks
Every developer has been there: you push a commit, CI fails, and it turns out there was a linting error, a forgotten debug statement, or a test that nobody ran. Pre-commit hooks are the safety net that catches these problems before they ever leave your machine. They are not a complex feature or an advanced Git topic. They are just scripts, and once you understand how they work, you will find yourself reaching for them on every project.
