If you can catch it before the commit is even made then why do/wait for a build?

Fair enough. Guess IDE plugins work even better for that

IDE plugins are not at all consistent from one IDE to another. Pre-commit is great for teams with different IDEs because all everyone needs to do is:

  [pip,] install pre-commit
  pre-commit install
  # git commit
  #   pre-commit run --all-files

  # pre-commit autoupdate
