Smart Git Commit

Create well-formatted commit: $ARGUMENTS

Current Repository State

  • Git status: !`git status --porcelain`
  • Current branch: !`git branch --show-current`
  • Staged changes: !`git diff --cached --stat`
  • Unstaged changes: !`git diff --stat`
  • Recent commits: !`git log --oneline -5`

What This Command Does

1. Unless specified with `--no-verify`, automatically runs pre-commit checks:

  • `pnpm lint` to ensure code quality
  • `pnpm build` to verify the build succeeds
  • `pnpm generate:docs` to update documentation

2. Checks which files are staged with `git status` 3. If 0 files are staged, automatically adds all modified and new files with `git add` 4. Performs a `git diff` to understand what changes are being committed 5. Analyzes the diff to determine if multiple distinct logical changes are present 6. If multiple distinct changes are detected, suggests breaking the commit into multiple smaller commits 7. For each commit (or the single commit if not split), creates a commit message using emoji conventional commit format

Best Practices for Commits

  • **Verify before committing**: Ensure code is linted, builds correctly, and documentation is updated
  • **Atomic commits**: Each commit should contain related changes that serve a single purpose
  • **Split large changes**: If changes touch multiple concerns, split them into separate commits
  • **Conventional commit format**: Use the format `<type>: <description>` where type is one of:
  • `feat`: A new feature
  • `fix`: A bug fix
  • `docs`: Documentation changes
  • `style`: Code style changes (formatting, etc)
  • `refactor`: Code changes that neither fix bugs nor add features
  • `perf`: Performance improvements
  • `test`: Adding or fixing tests
  • `chore`: Changes to the build process, tools, etc.
  • **Present tense, imperative mood**: Write commit messages as commands (e.g., "add feature" not "added feature")
  • **Concise first line**: Keep the first line under 72 characters
  • **Emoji**: Each commit type is paired with an appropriate emoji:
  • โœจ `feat`: New feature
  • ๐Ÿ› `fix`: Bug fix
  • ๐Ÿ“ `docs`: Documentation
  • ๐Ÿ’„ `style`: Formatting/style

Guidelines for Splitting Commits

When analyzing the diff, consider splitting commits based on these criteria:

1. **Different concerns**: Changes to unrelated parts of the codebase 2. **Different types of changes**: Mixing features, fixes, refactoring, etc. 3. **File patterns**: Changes to different types of files (e.g., source code vs documentation) 4. **Logical grouping**: Changes that would be easier to understand or review separately 5. **Size**: Very large changes that would be clearer if broken down

Examples

Good commit messages:

  • โœจ feat: add user authentication system
  • ๐Ÿ› fix: resolve memory leak in rendering process
  • ๐Ÿ“ docs: update API documentation with new endpoints
  • โ™ป๏ธ refactor: simplify error handling logic in parser
  • ๐Ÿšจ fix: resolve linter warnings in component files
