FAQPage Schema

How do I automate git commit and push without writing a message?▼

You can automate git commit and push by running the command, which stages changes and generates a timestamped commit message automatically if one is not provided, then pushes to the remote repository.

Can I use a custom message when I automate my git commit and push?▼

Yes, you can provide a custom message for your git commit and push by passing your text as an argument, such as `/ship "My commit message"`, to override the auto-generated timestamp.

Does automated git push support force pushing to remote repositories?▼

No, automated git push does not support force pushing. This safety measure prevents the accidental rewriting of remote commit history during the workflow.

Will an automated git commit trigger my pre-commit hooks?▼

Yes, the automated git commit process honors pre-commit hooks. This ensures your existing code quality validations run before changes are committed and pushed.

What happens if a git push fails during the automated workflow?▼

If a git push or commit fails, the workflow stops execution immediately and reports the error verbatim. This error handling prevents blind retries and hidden failures.
