That’s up to each individual developer’s own setup. But hooks are a way to ensure uniformity since they apply to all commits.
Why would it be on each dev to setup?
Your repo can, and should, include workspace settings for major editors that provide a uniform experience for anyone onboarded to the platform.
I agree that precommit hooks are good for uniformity. But slow pre commit hooks are frustrating, they are also often turned off. Your CI will always be the last gatekeeper for linting/formatting rules regardless.
Making precommit hooks slower means more devs disable them, which is the opposite of what you want. Save them for simple, read, checks and validations that can run in < 1s for even huge changesets.
