Pre-commit hooks automate code formatting by configuring Husky to run lint-staged and Prettier before changes are committed. This ensures consistent code style and catches errors early across your software repository.

Yes, pre-commit hooks work with pnpm and bun. The setup automatically detects your project's package manager to install and initialize Husky, lint-staged, and Prettier dependencies correctly for npm, yarn, pnpm, or bun.

The best way to automate linting and type checks before a commit is using Husky pre-commit hooks configured to run lint-staged. This automatically executes formatting, type checks, and tests on staged files during the commit process.

Configuring lint-staged and Husky in an existing repository involves initializing Husky and adding a pre-commit hook to run lint-staged. The setup verifies the configuration functions correctly with your chosen package manager.

You need lint-staged to run Prettier in pre-commit hooks because it executes formatting and linting only on staged files. This prevents slow commits by avoiding full-project processing and ensures code quality before changes are committed.
