Formatting with pre-commit

pre-commit is a tool that is used in this repository to check and apply style guidelines automatically. To install pre-commit into your system:

pip3 install pre-commit

Then under root directory install the git hooks like this:

pre-commit install

With this pre-commit will automatically run and check a list of styling including clang-format, end of files and trailing whitespaces whenever you run git commit. To run pre-commit any time other than git commit:

pre-commit run -a

The formatting of the Java code will be checked with every CI build. Run the following command to fix formatting errors:

./gradlew spotlessApply
