+Automatic formatting
+--------------------
+
+Pull requests apply Ruff fixes before the lint check. With the autofix.ci
+app installed for this repository, those fixes are committed to the pull
+request branch, including forks. Findings Ruff cannot fix still fail CI.
+Push builds check the committed files without applying fixes.

+Apply the same fixes locally with::
