The problem is that when we run the pre-commit script and there's some reformatting needed, we have to run it and stage the changes repeatedly. I've found a simpler solution: I created a special pre-commit hook in the
.git/hooks/
folder. This hook checks for changes and keeps running the pre-commit script until all the necessary reformatting is finished.To use this updated pre-commit hook script, you can create a symbolic link to it in your local .git/hooks directory using this command:
ln -s ../../.git-hooks/pre-commit .git/hooks/pre-commit
.I'm also sharing an example of how to use this hook in action:
P.S. I added
autoflake
to the pre-commit-config.yaml file to handleimported but unused
errors that come up when running theclass_generator
. Autoflake automatically removes these unnecessary imports (Also might be the reason that it removed the unnecessarypass
statement)Let me know what you think of this solution.
