Create well-formed git commits from current changes. Use when staging and committing work-in-progress on the issue branch.
# Commit ## Goals - Produce commits that reflect actual code changes and session intent. - Follow conventional-commit style (type prefix, ≤72-char subject, wrapped body). - Include both summary and rationale in the body. ## Steps 1. Inspect: `git status`, `git diff`, `git diff --staged`. 2. Stage intended changes: `git add -A` (after confirming scope). 3. Sanity-check newly added files. Skip build artifacts, logs, temp files. If anything looks accidentally staged, fix the index before committing. 4. Choose conventional type: `feat(scope): ...`, `fix(scope): ...`, `refactor(scope): ...`, `chore(scope): ...`, `docs(scope): ...`, `test(scope): ...`. 5. Subject in imperative mood, ≤72 chars, no trailing period. 6. Body sections (wrapped at 72): - **Summary** — what changed - **Rationale** — why - **Tests** — what you ran (or "not run (reason)") 7. Use a heredoc with `git commit -F` so newlines are literal. ## Template ``` <type>(<scope>): <short summary> Summary: - <what changed> Rationale: - <why> Tests: - <command or "not run (reason)"> Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> ``` ## Commands ```sh git status git diff --staged git add -A git commit -F /tmp/commit_message.md ``` ## Guardrails - Don't commit if the staged diff disagrees with the message — fix one or the other. - Don't run `git commit --amend` on commits already pushed to a shared branch. - Don't `git reset --hard` without explicit confirmation.
