FAQPage Schema

How do I automate pre-commit quality checks for Python and Shell files?▼

Automating pre-commit quality checks is done by running safe-commit on staged changes to auto-fix issues and run validations across Python, Shell, and Markdown files. It executes linters and type-checkers to surface problems before you commit.

Can I use ruff and mypy to auto-fix staged changes before committing?▼

Yes, you can use safe-commit to auto-fix staged changes by running ruff and mypy. It applies fixes directly to staged files and surfaces raw linter outputs for human review, ensuring code quality before the final commit.

Does safe-commit work without a pyproject.toml file in my repository?▼

Yes, safe-commit works without a pyproject.toml file. When project configuration is absent, it uses locally installed tools instead of project-aware execution to run validations and surface raw outputs for your review.

What is the best way to prevent committing sensitive or local files in git?▼

Preventing sensitive file commits is handled by safe-commit through its built-in safeguards. It detects local or sensitive files, warns about them, blocks the commit, reports commit size, and provides a summary to guide your final decision.

How do I run shellcheck and markdownlint on staged changes before a commit?▼

Running shellcheck and markdownlint on staged changes is automated by safe-commit. It validates Shell and Markdown files alongside Python, enforcing quality assurance by surfacing any detected issues before you finalize the commit.
