Fix support for pre-commit versions < 3.2.0

[andrewmwilson]

Description

This previous change broke support for versions of pre-commit earlier than 3.2.0.

As far as I can tell, there's no reason not to leave these as commit, merge-commit and push for now. Eventually they will need to be updated, but the current version of pre-commit supports both sets of values.

Checklist - did you ...

• Add an entry in CHANGES.md if necessary?
• Add / update tests if necessary?
• Add new / update outdated documentation?

Agreed.

True.

Eventually they will need to be updated

Yes, probably sometime in mid-to-late 2024, see #4067 (comment)

Can this PR be merged soon? I'm keen to get this fix and aren't in a position to update pre-commit in the environment I'm using.

Thanks for the PR! However, this situation seems pretty annoying, since specifying these values sounds like it will just break again with a newer pre-commit in a few months. I think we should just revert #3940 , afaict users who care about specific stages can just specify that directly in their own config. Does that sound reasonable, @davidculley? Maybe there's some motivation for that change that I'm missing

Also note for anyone currently broken by this, you can try using https://github.com/psf/black-pre-commit-mirror instead. This never received that change, so should still work. It'll also make black like 2x faster :-)

Yes, that sounds reasonable to me.
