-Note that you should manually run `npx simple-git-hooks` **every time you change a command**.
+The package will automatically update this command for you every time you commit. This works by hijacking the pre-commit hook and running `npx simple-git-hooks` behind the scenes. In addition, to make sure you run the newest pre-commit command, it will use the command from `package.json` and only leave a fallback command in the `.git/hooks` folder for usage with `preserveUnused`.
+
+Note that you should manually run `npx simple-git-hooks` if you want to apply changes from non-commit related hooks. This command will also run initially when running `yarn` using a `postinstall` hook. So ideally you will only call the command once when you setup simple-git-hooks, and never having to worry about it again.
