Problem statement:
#406
The previous implementation of doing precommit linting had problems where you might have unstaged changes that fix lint errors. Then when the commit is pushed it fails remotely.
Solution
Instead of using a naive bash script to run the linter we now use lint-staged. Using lint-staged fixes the problem by only linting staged files so you cant commit things that will break linting rules.
In addition to better linting we now also run prettier over all json files being committed which also has a global config in the root of the project.
