Pre-commit hook

pollen publishes a hook, so a repository that carries a pollen.yaml can keep it honest. In that repository’s .pre-commit-config.yaml:

repos:
  - repo: https://github.com/groupbees/pollen
    rev: v0.1.0
    hooks:
      - id: pollen-validate

Pin rev to a released tag. The hook runs on every pollen.yaml a commit touches and checks that it parses and its rules hold. It fetches nothing, so it stays fast and works offline — and therefore says nothing about the skills those sources would yield. Run pollen validate for that, in CI or by hand.

To require every git source to be pinned to a commit, pass --pinned:

      - id: pollen-validate
        args:
          - --pinned
