.pre-commit-hooks.yaml now exposes hooks to external consumers pinning
rev: <tag>, but nothing enforced that a tag actually gets cut when the
files it references change — relying on memory is exactly what this
repo's governance rules say to avoid for a repeatable, deterministic
check.
scripts/check-release-needed.sh hard-fails at pre-push, but only when
PRE_COMMIT_REMOTE_BRANCH (set by pre-commit's hook-impl) is
refs/heads/main: it diffs .pre-commit-hooks.yaml's referenced paths
against the last tag reachable from HEAD, and fails if either no tag
exists yet or something changed since. It's a silent no-op on every
other branch — hard-failing on feature-branch pushes mid-review would
force a premature tag on a commit that might not survive a
squash-merge, the exact risk the repo: local (vs. pinned self-
reference) decision in ADR-0014 already avoids for this repo's own
dev-time gate.
Verified against the real git pre-push hook path (not just the script
in isolation): simulated stdin matching git's pre-push protocol through
.git/hooks/pre-push, confirmed it correctly fires and fails when
targeting main with no tag, and is silent otherwise.
