Instructions

# Git Commit Smart This skill provides automated assistance for git commit smart tasks. ## Prerequisites Before using this skill, ensure: - Git repository is initialized in {baseDir} - Changes are staged using `git add` - User has permission to create commits - Git user name and email are configured ## Instructions 1. **Analyze Staged Changes**: Examine git diff output to understand modifications 2. **Determine Commit Type**: Classify changes as feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, test, or chore 3. **Identify Scope**: Extract affected module or component from file paths 4. **Detect Breaking Changes**: Look for API changes, removed features, or incompatible modifications 5. **Format Message**: Construct message following pattern: `type(scope): description` 6. **Present for Review**: Show generated message and ask for confirmation before committing ## Output Generates conventional commit messages in this format: ``` type(scope): brief description - Detailed explanation of changes - Why the change was necessary - Impact on existing functionality BREAKING CHANGE: description if applicable ``` Examples: - `feat(auth): implement JWT authentication middleware` - `fix(api): resolve null pointer exception in user endpoint` - `docs(readme): update installation instructions` ## Error Handling Common issues and solutions: **No Staged Changes** - Error: "No changes staged for commit" - Solution: Stage files using `git add ` before generating commit message **Git Not Initialized** - Error: "Not a git repository" - Solution: Initialize git with `git init` or navigate to repository root **Uncommitted Changes** - Warning: "Unstaged changes detected" - Solution: Stage relevant changes or use `git stash` for unrelated modifications **Invalid Commit Format** - Error: "Generated message doesn't follow conventional format" - Solution: Review and manually adjust type, scope, or description ## Resources - Conventional Commits specification: https://www.conventionalcommits.org/ - Git commit best practices documentation - Repository commit history for style consistency - Project-specific commit guidelines in {baseDir}/000-docs/007-DR-GUID-contributing.md ## Overview This skill provides automated assistance for the described functionality. ## Examples Example usage patterns will be demonstrated in context.
