There are different workflows. I sometimes commit code that does not compile, so that I have a checkpoint. Or because it’s 16:59 and I want to leave the office (and I want to protect the code I wrote from hardware failure). I’d be annoyed if any pre-commit checks took more than 2-3 minutes, and for most projects, that is not enough to build and run any meaningful tests (especially remotely).

There’s a flag for toggling hook when committing. And you can rebase later to clean up the history.

You can skip by running git commit --no-verify. I know this because I also hate pre-commit checks, and I will automatically use it when working with any codebase that has one.
