Hi Brock, that is an excellent idea and I'm definitely in favour of that. In fact I wanted to propose something similar myself.
However I did not quite finished my own investigation yet. It seems that this pre commit hooks are done on projects that were mostly donated by Yahoo! (Hadoop, Oozie) on Jenkins nodes named "hadoopX". The hadoop named nodes have comment "Build machine for Hadoop project builds", so I'm not sure that they are available for other projects as well. With removing those 9 hadoop notes, it's like 10 other nodes in total for entire Apache organization and I do know that sometimes the build queue might be quite huge. Having said that it might be good idea to ask Infra team if pre-commit hooks are available to all projects or only to projects that have "special hardware" available.
