+name: Isort and Black Formatting
+# Incrementally reformat only changed files with black, all files with isort
+#
+# Replaces pre-commit.ci, since it reformats all the files.
+# See issue https://github.com/pre-commit-ci/issues/issues/90
+#
+# The action requires a custom token to trigger workflow after pushing reformatted files back to the branch.
+# `secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN` can be used instead, but this will result
+# in not running necessary checks after reformatting, which is undesirable.
+# For details see https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/25702
