I struggle to see value with git hooks. They're an opt-in, easily opt-out way of calling shell scripts from my understanding--you can't force folks to run them, and they don't integrate/display nicely with CI/CD.

Why not just call a shell script directly? How would you use these with a CI/CD platform?

>>candid+6a
They integrate well with CI.

You run the same hooks in CI as locally so it's DRY and pushes people to use the hooks locally to get the early feedback instead of failing in CI.

Hooks without CI are less useful since they will be constantly broken.

Why wouldn't I just call the same shell script in CI and locally though? What's the benefit here? All I'm seeing is circular logic.

>>candid+0f
The point is enforcement. If there's a newcomer to developing your repo, you can ask them to install the hooks and from thereon everything they commit will be compatible with the processes in your CI. You don't need to manually run the scripts they'll run automatically as part of the commit or push or whatever process
