+# Use this file to configure the Overcommit hooks you wish to use. This will

+# At the topmost level of this YAML file is a key representing type of hook
+# being run (e.g. pre-commit, commit-msg, etc.). Within each type you can
+# customize each hook, such as whether to only run it on certain files (via
+# `include`), whether to only display output if it fails (via `quiet`), etc.

+# For a complete list of hooks, see:

+#PostCheckout:

+## Checking the style and other issues
+
This is also the style used by linting tools such as
[RuboCop](https://github.com/rubocop-hq/rubocop) and [Hound CI](https://houndci.com).
+You can run RuboCop by hand or install a tool like [Overcommit](https://github.com/sds/overcommit) to run it for you.
+Overcommit will automatically run the configured checks (like Rubocop) on every modified file before commit. You can use the example overcommit configuration found in `.overcommit.yml.example` as a quickstart.
+This saves you time as you don't have to wait for the same errors to be detected by the CI.
