Description: Pre-confirmation in version control systems is a hook that runs before a commit is made. This mechanism allows developers to implement scripts or commands that automatically execute just prior to confirming changes in the repository. Its main function is to provide an additional layer of control and validation, ensuring that certain criteria are met before changes are finally recorded. For example, it can be used to run automated tests, check code style, or perform security analysis. Pre-confirmation is especially useful in collaborative development environments, where multiple developers work on the same code, and maintaining the quality and integrity of the project is crucial. By establishing rules and procedures that run before a commit, errors are minimized, and workflow efficiency is improved. This proactive approach helps teams maintain coding standards and avoid issues that could arise from unwanted or lower-quality changes.
