[hjmjohnson]

Move the pre-commit hooks from bash to python.

A few advantages of python:

• Easier to maintain and understand
• Easier to add complex logic and auto-fixes

Should we move these hooks to a separate repo to be reused by projects?

I think they are easy enough to copy and "vimdiff" compare that the overhead of a separate project is not worth it. .... that's just my 2 cent opinion :).

Not sure if we were aware of this:

Re #5434 (comment) seems like the SO question was not very popular, but digging more into this I found this:
https://jorisroovers.com/gitlint/latest/

which is supported by pre-commit. It seems to have many relevant features, e.g.
https://github.com/jorisroovers/gitlint/blob/4d9119760056492eabc201bfad5de2f9e660b85f/examples/gitlint#L26
and
https://github.com/jorisroovers/gitlint/blob/4d9119760056492eabc201bfad5de2f9e660b85f/examples/gitlint#L35C1-L35C20

I may have a better look if we agree that we want to adopt this.

gitlint sounds promising

Had a closer look and it seems like it is no longer maintained, unfortunately (last commit was 2 years ago).
