I am adding basic configuration for
pre-commit. It is a tool for managing and running code quality and style checks that is recommended by the Scientific Python Development Guide andastropyhas been using it for quite some time. I am opening the PR with only a few checks, but more can be added either in this PR or in follow-ups. My end goal is to completely replace thecodestyletoxenvironment withpre-commit.pre-commitcan run in CI, but I don't have permissions to set that up here. See the Scientific Python Development Guide and the references within.
