Yeah. There are a few UX issues I pointed at and Jo is working on them. BTW. We also have other improvements coming that might soon make us start departing from `pre-commit` - even earlier than with monorepo support.
Namely: https://github.com/j178/prek/issues/509 that will allow us to move most of the dependencies for Python hooks to be inline PEP 723 compliant dependencies without duplicating them with .pre-commit-config.yaml This one is actually very cool, because it will allow for much easier testing and development of prek hooks uv run ./scripts/ci/prek/hoook_name.py files .... Also there is a discussion in pip to implement PEP-723 - finally - https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12891 - and then you will be able to also run such scripts with just *pep* without having to have an explicit venv - which IMHO is a game-changer for Python scripts. I will also try to figure out a way how we can make pre-commit fail with our configuration, ideally with some message that will guide people to stop using it. I have some ideas, but I am not sure how far it will go. J.
