FAQPage Schema

How do I generate conventional commits automatically from staged git diffs?▼

To generate conventional commits from staged git diffs, invoke the /commit command in your project. The tool analyzes the staged changes to infer the commit type and scope, enforcing the conventional commit format automatically.

What is the conventional commit format and how does scope inference work?▼

The conventional commit format standardizes git history by categorizing changes into types and scopes. This tool analyzes your code diffs to automatically infer the correct type and scope based on the modified files and context.

Can I configure project-specific scopes for conventional commits?▼

Yes, you can configure project-specific scopes using the /commit configure command. This allows the automated commit generation to adapt to your project's specific installation model and defined scope boundaries.

Does automated commit generation apply safety checks before creating a commit?▼

Yes, automated commit generation applies safety checks before finalizing the message. These pre-commit checks enforce conventional formatting and prevent problematic commits to ensure consistency and improve code review quality.

What is the best way to standardize git workflow history across different software projects?▼

The best way to standardize git history is using automated conventional commit generation that applies across software projects regardless of language. It enforces deterministic messaging and formatting rules consistently.
