setup-pre-commit

To set up Husky pre-commit hooks with Prettier, install Husky and lint-staged as devDependencies, initialize Husky, and generate a `.husky/pre-commit` file alongside a `.lintstagedrc` config to format staged files automatically on commit.

Using a Husky pre-commit hook with lint-staged is an effective way to prevent unformatted code from entering Git history, running Prettier formatting and optional quality checks on staged files before the commit is finalized.

Yes, the pre-commit hook can execute typecheck and test scripts during the commit flow when those scripts already exist in your project, ensuring code quality and preventing regressions before changes are committed.

Yes, this pre-commit setup supports JavaScript and TypeScript repositories using npm, pnpm, yarn, or bun by detecting the active package manager before installing devDependencies and initializing the Husky Git hooks.

You do not need to manually create config files; the setup automatically bootstraps a default `.prettierrc` and generates `.lintstagedrc` if they are absent, ensuring formatting is immediately consistent across your repository.
