+# NOTE: This is a Julia package. Julia formatting is handled by the separate
+# `runic` CI job (fredrikekre/runic-action). The previous Python (ruff), R
+# (lintr) and Java (pretty-format-java) hooks were removed: there are no such
+# source files in this repo, and the R `lintr` hook in particular bootstrapped
+# an renv library on every cold cache, which dominated pre-commit CI runtime.
