When generating commit messages, always follow this process:
|
|
|
|
1. **Gather context**: Run, `~/repos/claude_wks/commit_gen.py`
|
|
to get staged changes, recent commits, and style guide rules
|
|
|
|
2. **Analyze the diff**: Understand what files changed and the nature
|
|
of the changes (new feature, bug fix, refactor, etc.)
|
|
|
|
3. **Write the commit message** following these rules:
|
|
|
|
**Use the accompanying style guide:**
|
|
- Use the style guide `./style-guide-reference.md` for more details
|
|
on how to write the message based on analysis of past commits in
|
|
this repo.
|
|
|
|
**Subject Line Format:**
|
|
- Present tense verbs: Add, Drop, Fix, Use, Move, Adjust, etc.
|
|
- Target 50 chars (hard max: 67)
|
|
- Backticks around ALL code elements (classes, functions, modules, vars)
|
|
- Specific about what changed
|
|
|
|
**Body Format (optional - keep simple if warranted):**
|
|
- Max 67 char line length
|
|
- Use `-` bullets for lists
|
|
- Section markers: `Also,` `Deats,` `Other,` `Further,`
|
|
- Abbreviations: msg, bg, ctx, impl, mod, obvi, tn, fn, bc, var, prolly
|
|
- Casual yet technically precise tone
|
|
- Never write lines with only whitespace
|
|
|
|
**Common Opening Patterns:**
|
|
- New features: "Add `feature` to `module`"
|
|
- Removals: "Drop `attr` from `class`"
|
|
- Bug fixes: "Fix `issue` in `function`"
|
|
- Code moves: "Move `thing` to `new_location`"
|
|
- Adoption: "Use `new_tool` for `task`"
|
|
- Minor tweaks: "Adjust `behavior` in `component`"
|
|
|
|
4. **Write to TWO files**:
|
|
- `.claude/<timestamp>_<hash>_commit_msg.md` (timestamp from `date
|
|
--iso-8601=seconds`, hash from `git log -1 --format=%h` first
|
|
7 chars)
|
|
- `.claude/git_commit_msg_LATEST.md` (overwrite)
|
|
|
|
5. **Always include credit footer**:
|
|
|
|
When no part of the patch was written by `claude`,
|
|
```
|
|
(this commit msg was generated in some part by [`claude-code`][claude-code-gh])
|
|
|
|
[claude-code-gh]: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
and when some or all of the patch was written by `claude` instead
|
|
use,
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
(this patch was generated in some part by [`claude-code`][claude-code-gh])
|
|
|
|
[claude-code-gh]: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Keep it concise. Match the tone of recent commits. For simple
|
|
changes, use subject line only.
