Run Task spotlessApply before commit (Pre-commit)?

Developers consistently have problems manually running the spotlessApply task after coding changes... See: https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/1151 and https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/1148

maybe we should just run spotlessApply just before compilation and skip the tasks to check for spotless failures? Or we run both of them: Run spotlessApply before spotlessCheck (seems wasteful). Is this a good idea? I wonder?
