-    rev: v3.1.0
+  # A `local` hook instead of the `mirrors-prettier` repo mirror: that mirror only has alpha
+  # pre-releases past v3.1.0 (prettier hasn't cut a stable v4 yet), and pre-commit.ci's autoupdate
+  # always jumps to the highest available tag regardless of pre-release status - repeatedly
+  # proposing a broken v4.0.0-alpha.x bump (see #168, #188, #192, #200). A `local` hook has no
+  # `rev` for autoupdate to touch, so it's pinned here until manually bumped to a real stable
+  # release.
