Pre-commit addition is heavy

[shaleh]

I tried to update to the new main this morning.
poetry run pre-commit install --install-hooks fails for me

[INFO] This may take a few minutes...
An unexpected error has occurred: CalledProcessError: command: ('go', 'install', './...')
return code: 1
expected return code: 0
stdout:
    Executable `go` not found

Why do I need go? What is that giving the project that is helpful?

🤔 didnt realise go was needed for one of them.

I guess that would be gitleaks: https://github.com/zricethezav/gitleaks

go isnt exactly a rare binary to find, but I do agree it seems a bit excessive to ask for it to be installed in a python project.

Can we ignore gitleaks? It does not feel relevant to the project. We are not likely to have password file right?

[MichaelAquilina]

I think its safe-ish to remove. The idea is to prevent tokens and secrets from mistakenly being committed. But I think that is more of a need on a larger team rather than a project maintained by an individual
