Looks like pre-commit has something to say about this.
The example from the release post would be good to include here...the ability to do a partial read of a remote FlatGeoBuf is a great feature ( https://sedona.apache.org/latest/blog/2025/12/01/sedonadb-020-release/#gdalogr-spatial-file-format-read-support ). This won't work for the Microsoft Buildings example (or any of the GeoArrow data fgb files) because they don't contain spatial indexes (I wrote them this way to keep them under the 2GB GitHub releases limit).
