🪝You Should Probably Use Git Hooks

A peer-reviewed study at EASE 2026 analyzed 33,596 AI-authored pull requests in GitHub repositories, revealing that 61.38% had no recorded review activity, rising to 84% when including bot-only reviews. This suggests Git workflows do not require fundamental changes due to AI. Separately, the use of Git hooks is highlighted as a method to protect developers by ensuring code is formatted and linted locally before reaching CI/CD pipelines, balancing developer autonomy with team quality standards.
