Ability to run subset of hooks, not just one

Hi folks! Wondering if adding the ability to run a subset of checks rather than just one is possible. For example, instead of only being able to run a black check: pre-commit run black. Be able to run something like pre-commit run black,flake8 to run the black and flake8 checks.

This would be especially useful for me since I am working on creating a shared pre-commit container/configuration for multiple repositories, but not all of them want to run every available check (only a subset).

I’m also aware there is a workaround for this, running something like pre-commit run black && pre-commit run flake8 but figured another solution may be more elegant.

Likewise, even support for globs, like

pre-commit run '*-formatter'

which would run all hooks matching the pattern

I’d really benefit from this. I have a great many hooks, organized into “suites” (auto-formatters, linters, typecheckers) I want to run together (as a little script).

Current options

&&

# file: bin/format
pre-commit run json-formatter && pre-commit run python-formatter && ...

CON

This has to re-stash between every single hook, which is really adding up

SKIP

# file: bin/format
SKIP=enumerate,every,single,non-format,hook... pre-commit run

CON

This is much harder to understand and maintain

Desired option

# file: bin/format
pre-commit run json-formatter python-formatter...
