Smart Commit

Context

• Current branch: !git branch --show-current
• Staged changes: !git diff --staged --stat
• Recent commits: !git log --oneline -3

Your Task

Analyze staged changes and generate a conventional commit message, then create the commit.

Arguments

• --amend (optional): Amend the last commit instead of creating new one
• --no-verify (optional): Skip pre-commit hooks

Steps

1. Analyze staged changes:

   git diff --staged
   

2. Determine commit type based on changes:

   • feat: New feature or functionality
   • fix: Bug fix
   • docs: Documentation only
   • style: Formatting, whitespace
   • refactor: Code restructuring
   • test: Adding or updating tests
   • chore: Maintenance, dependencies
   • perf: Performance improvement

3. Identify scope (optional):

   • Component name (e.g., auth, api, ui)
   • Module name (e.g., payments, users)
   • Feature area (e.g., dashboard, settings)

4. Generate commit message following format:

   <type>(<scope>): <description>
   
   [optional body]
   
   [optional footer]
   

5. Create commit:

   git commit -m "type(scope): description"
   

   Or for detailed message:

   git commit -m "type(scope): description" -m "Body text" -m "Footer text"
   

6. Confirm commit:

   git log -1 --pretty=format:"%h - %s"
   

Examples

Simple feature commit:

/smart-commit
# Analyzes: Added new login form component
# Generates: feat(auth): add login form component
# Commits with generated message

Bug fix with details:

/smart-commit
# Analyzes: Fixed null pointer in user service
# Generates:
# fix(users): handle null response in getUserById
#
# Previously crashed when user data was null.
# Now returns 404 with appropriate error message.
#
# Fixes #123

Amend last commit:

/smart-commit --amend
# Updates the last commit message based on current staged changes
