 ## Pre-commit hooks
+
 We use [pre-commit hooks](https://pre-commit.com/) to auto-format and validate code before committing. `pre-commit` is included with the `[test]` extras, but you must run:
-```
+
+```bash
 $ pre-commit install
 ```
 within the repo to have the actions specified in `.pre-commit-config.yaml` registered.
 
-After this, when committing, you'll see:
-```
-git commit -m 'update version'
-black....................................................................Passed
-Flake8...................................................................Passed
-```
-If your pre-commit hooks ran successfully. Note that `black` modifies your code, which means that if there is a syntax error you'll first see something like:
-```
-git commit -m '{message}'
-black....................................................................Failed
-hookid: black
-
-Files were modified by this hook. Additional output:
-
-reformatted this/file/was/reformatted.py
-All done! ✨ 🍰 ✨
-1 file reformatted.
-
-Flake8...................................................................Failed
-hookid: flake8
-
-this/file/was/reformatted.py:{line}:{character}: {what was incorrect}
-```
-After which you can add these changes and commit again. Note that failing pre-commit commands mean that the commit has not taken place: you must commit again!
