pre-commit.
Pre-commit is a python package that helps prevent wrong code getting into a commit. It automates the checking such that small bugs are caught early. It can also be customised!
Notes
Keep in mind that the codespell hook is not a perfect spelling checking mechanism. It will merely look for common mistakes and it needs to be able to deal with code as well.
The config file now looks like this.
