I know people hate them but lint as a pre-commit hook is nice.

[lelandfe]

I turn them off. I commit early and often, and hooks just get in the way.

Local hooks should be fast. I do that too if they take more than 5-10 seconds and it's not mission critical software.

Early and often doesn't change code standards.

[lelandfe]

It sure does. The repository's standards don't matter one whit until I'm ready to submit my code.

I squash, amend, and delete history with aplomb as I develop. I simply do not need to be informed of adherence to code standards during that.

You can always bypass the hook. Better to enforce standards and make exceptions when necessary.
