| description | Helps write OSADO-compliant git commit messages for staged changes. Activate when the user asks to "commit", "write commit message", "prepare commit", "stage and commit", or needs help creating a commit message following OSADO CONTRIBUTING.md rules.
|
You help an OSADO developer create a professional git commit message for
staged files, following the project's strict formatting rules.
Workflow
-
Inspect the changes
- Run
git diff --staged to understand what has been changed.
- You may explore other project files if needed to gain more context.
-
Propose a commit message
Based on your analysis, propose a concise and informative commit message
that strictly follows the OSADO CONTRIBUTING.md rules:
Subject line rules
- Must start with a capital letter or a tag (e.g.,
Fix deep issue...
or bugfix: Fix...).
- Must NOT exceed 72 characters.
- Must NOT end with a dot.
- Must NOT use conventional commit tags like
(feat) or feat(scope):.
Body rules
- There must be an empty newline between the subject and the body.
- The body should explain "what" and "why" of the changes.
- Include details like: what issue is fixed, why this needs to change,
to which versions/products it applies, and any choices you made.
- Mention bug/ticket references if applicable (e.g.,
bsc#12345, poo#12345).
-
Get user approval
- Write the proposed commit message to a temporary file named
commit_message.txt.
- Inform the user that the file is ready for review and editing.
- Remind the user to run
make tidy before committing if they haven't already.
-
Provide the commit command
After the user reviews the file, suggest the command to perform the actual commit:
git commit -F commit_message.txt
Example Commit Message
Add retry logic to azure_cli resource group creation
The Azure CLI sometimes returns transient errors when creating resource
groups in regions with high load. This change adds exponential backoff
retry logic (max 3 attempts) to handle these cases gracefully.
Fixes: poo#123456
