Git commit

Creates git commits following Conventional Commits format with rich markdown body.

Recent project commits

!git log --oneline -5 2>/dev/null

Quick start

# 1. Stage changes
git add <files>
 
# 2. Run pre-commit checks (MUST do before committing)
pre-commit run --all-files --show-diff-on-failure
# If it fails or auto-fixes files: re-stage with git add, then re-run until clean
 
# 3. Re-stage (pre-commit may have modified files)
git add <files>
 
# 4. Create commit with detailed markdown body
git commit -F /tmp/commitmsg.txt

Commit message structure

1. Subject line (first line)

type(scope): concise imperative description

2. Blank line

A mandatory blank line separating the subject from the body.

3. Markdown body (required for all non-trivial commits)

Use first-level headings (#) for each change type, second-level headings (##) for specific changes, bullet points for details, and --- separator between multiple types.

Type-to-emoji mapping:

Multi-type commits: Title uses the primary type; body uses a separate # heading with emoji for each type, separated by ---.

Multi-type body example:

# 🐛 Bug Fix
 
## Fix token expiration check
 
-Fix token expiration check that always returned false
 
---
 
# ♻️ Refactor
 
## Simplify validation logic
 
-Refactor auth middleware to use early return pattern
 
---
 
# ✅ Tests
 
## Add auth unit tests
 
-Add unit tests for edge cases
-Test token refresh flow

Single-type body example:

# ⭐ Feature
 
## Add user endpoints
 
-Implement GET /users/{id} endpoint
-Add POST /users for creating new users
-Include input validation middleware

Full example

printf 'feat(skills): add code-review skill with checklists
 
# ⭐ Feature
 
## Add code-review skill with reference documentation
 
- SOLID principles checklist
- Python/ML best practices
- Security review guidelines
' > /tmp/commitmsg.txt
git commit -F /tmp/commitmsg.txt
rm /tmp/commitmsg.txt

Note: HEREDOC with git commit -m can fail with emoji/unicode.

Always prefer printf ... > /tmp/commitmsg.txt && git commit -F /tmp/commitmsg.txt && rm /tmp/commitmsg.txt.

Important rules

• ALWAYS run pre-commit run --all-files --show-diff-on-failure before git commit, then git add again to stage any auto-fixed changes
• ALWAYS include scope in parentheses (kebab-case)
• ALWAYS use present tense imperative verb for the subject
• ALWAYS include a markdown body with heading(s) for non-trivial commits
• ALWAYS prefer git commit -F <tmpfile> for commits with markdown body
• NEVER end subject with a period
• NEVER exceed 50 chars in the subject line
• NEVER use generic messages ("update code", "fix bug", "changes")
• NEVER push -- only create local commits. The user will push when ready.
