• Installed by pip install pre-commit, conda install pre_commit or see https://pre-commit.com/#install.
• pre-commit hook is installed by pre-commit install.

Unless running pre-commit, pre-commit.ci may push the fix at PR by github action. In this case, the fix should be merged by the contributor's repository.
