ImportError: cannot import name ‘Protocol‘ from ‘typing‘ (/usr/local/python3.7.0/lib/python3.7/typin

今天在运行pre-commit的时候出现了下面的错误：

我的环境是python 3.7.5

解决方法

查资料说 it should work since Python 3.8, try updating.
于是升级成python3.8：

conda create -n py38 python=3.8
conda activate py38

然后在虚拟的python3.8的环境里面pre-commit，然后就不报错了。
