Some code-quality checks are performed during continuous integration. The easiest way to check that they pass locally, before submitting your pull request, is by using pre-commit <https://pre-commit.com/>_.

Steps to get set up are (run these within your virtual environment):

1. install:

pip install pre-commit

2. enable:

pre-commit install

Now, whenever you stage some file, then when you run git commit -m "<some descriptive message>", pre-commit will run the checks defined in .pre-commit-config.yaml and will block your commit if any of them fail. If any hook fails, you should fix it (if necessary), run git add <files> again, and then re-run git commit -m "<some descriptive message>".

You can skip pre-commit using --no-verify, e.g.

git commit -m "wip lol" --no-verify

To skip one particular hook, you can set the SKIP environment variable. E.g. (on Linux):

SKIP=pyupgrade git commit -m "<descriptive message>"
