Welcome and thanks for considering to contribute to this repository!
When contributing to this project, please utilize the pre-commit hooks. If not installed yet, you will need to add the python package pre-commit:
pip install pre-commit
Once the package is installed, simply install the pre-commit hooks defined in the repository by executing:
pre-commit install
from within the repository directory.
The pre-commit hooks will now automatically run when invoking git commit. Note, however, that this requires an active shell that has pre-commit installed.
You can also manually run the pre-commit on single files or on all files via:
pre-commit run --all-files
If you need to commit something even though there are errors (this should not have to be done!), then you can add the flag --no-verify to the git commit command. This will bypass the pre-commit hooks.
