+=== Install pre-commit hook (optional)
+
+In case you want to run a couple of checks like linting or check the file casing of the files to commit, we provide 
+a way to install a pre-commit hook. To configure it you just need to run the following:
+
+[source,bash]
+----
+node scripts/register_git_hook
+----
+
+After the script completes the pre-commit hook will be created within the file `.git/hooks/pre-commit`.
+If you choose to not install it, don't worry, we still run a quick ci check to provide feedback earliest as we can about the same checks.
