describe your issue

When I run pre-commit autoupdate on this .pre-commit-config.yaml it changes that SHA to rev: v2.7.0.

This is an OLDER release which does not include a recent change made in that repo which I would like - so it downgrades.

https://github.com/macisamuele/language-formatters-pre-commit-hooks has only 1 default branch.
