What problem does it solve?

Users often struggle to create consistent, descriptive commit messages and manage branching during changes.

Core Features & Use Cases

Structured commit messages: Generates a commit title and body using the Problem/Solution format.
Branch handling: If on main or master, creates a new fatih- prefixed branch before committing.
Guided workflow: Ensures all related files are staged and included, avoiding unrelated changes.

FAQPage Schema

How do I generate a structured git commit message automatically?▼

To generate a structured git commit message automatically, this tool analyzes staged changes and composes a descriptive title alongside a Problem/Solution body. It ensures related files are included while avoiding unrelated modifications.

How does branching work when committing changes directly from main?▼

When committing changes directly from main or master, the workflow automatically creates a new fatih- prefixed branch. This branching mechanism prevents direct commits to the primary branch and isolates your changes.

Can I stage only related files and exclude unrelated changes in a git workflow?▼

Yes, you can stage only related files and exclude unrelated changes in a git workflow. The process ensures all related modifications are staged and committed together while deliberately avoiding unrelated files in the repository.

What is the Problem/Solution format for a git commit body?▼

The Problem/Solution format for a git commit body describes the issue your changes address and how they resolve it. This structured approach ensures commit messages clearly explain the reasoning behind each modification.

Do I need Git installed to use this automated commit workflow?▼

Yes, you need Git installed and available in your environment to use this automated commit workflow. The tool operates directly within the current repository to stage files and create branches.
