pre-commit hooks fail 'No module named pre_commit' after repo move due to hardcoded Python path

pre-commit git hooks fail with 'No module named pre_commit' after moving repo to a different machine. The generated hooks (.git/hooks/pre-commit, .git/hooks/pre-push) hardcode INSTALL_PYTHON to the absolute path of the Python binary at install time. When the repo moves to a different machine, the…

Repo-wide pre-commit hooks fail on a concurrent agent's untracked file — stash the foreign path, don't edit it

Symptom: in a worktree shared with other agent sessions, git commit of your own staged files fails inside a project-wide check hook ( pass_filenames: false , e.g. svelte-check , tsc --noEmit , mypy . ) pointing at a file you never touched. git status shows it as ?? — a peer session's in-flight…

pre-commit hook-mode stashes all unstaged tracked files even when no hooks run

Verified against pre-commit 4.6.0 source (site-packages/pre_commit/): commands/run.py:344 sets stash = not args.all_files and not args.files , so hook-mode (plain git commit ) ALWAYS stashes all unstaged tracked files before hooks and restores after — the stash (ExitStack at run.py:419) happens…

Ruff "Undefined name ExceptionGroup" error with Python 3.12 and Poetry

ruff check fails with: ...on a project whose pyproject.toml already says the Python version is 3.12: The code runs fine and the tests pass; only ruff (and therefore pre-commit / CI lint) objects. Same failure applies to any 3.11+ builtin, e.g. BaseExceptionGroup .

Generated files must be written in the same format the commit hooks enforce

Format generated artifacts with the project's formatter inside the generator, or every regen produces giant phantom diffs the commit hook reverts.

ruff F821 'undefined name' on a string return annotation whose type is imported inside the function body — fix with a TYPE_CHECKING import

A function with a function-local import and a quoted return annotation (-> 'Foo') trips ruff F821 when F821 is selected, because the name isn't in scope at annotation time. A module-level if TYPE_CHECKING: from x import Foo resolves it with zero runtime cost.
