The first step of which I usually have as pre-commit run --all-files (using the third-party tool of the same name as git feature) - so running locally automatically on changed files just gives me an early warning. It can be nice to run unit

No they don't, they start at a few hundred. They'd all be an upgrade for my bought-at-launch £750/800ish Framework 13. An upgrade like that does mean I need new (DDR5) RAM too though, which tightens the gap a bit (or a byte,

It did annoy me slightly that they released higher quality more rigid upper parts of the chassis ('top cover', behind the screen) shortly after my launch order of the 13. Sure I can upgrade, for £129, but my first upgrade as a res

Linux works with updates however you want it to - e.g. Arch is a 'rolling release' distro, so compatibility is always expected at the latest of all packages; any update to any package is expected to have been tested with the lates
