Can this skill automatically link GitHub issues?

Yes, it extracts issue numbers from branch names following the 'issue- - ' convention and includes them in the commit summary.

What is the difference between a Milestone and a Delivery commit?

A Milestone commit tracks progress on development branches and can bypass pre-commit hooks using --no-verify, whereas a Delivery commit is a formal update that must pass all pre-commit checks.

When does the skill generate a full commit message versus a short one?

If the staged changes are 20 lines or more, the skill generates a full message with file-level descriptions. For smaller changes, a concise short message is used.

How does the skill determine which tags to use in commit messages?

The skill requires a 'docs/git-msg-tag.md' file in the project root. It will prompt the user to create this file if it doesn't exist to ensure tags match project-specific modules.

Does the AI claim authorship of the commits?

No, the skill is explicitly configured to never claim co-authorship, ensuring the user remains fully responsible for the commit history.

Automates the creation of structured, meaningful git commit messages based on change size and project-specific tagging conventions.

The Smart Git Commit Manager skill streamlines version control workflows by guiding Claude to generate high-quality, standardized commit messages. It intelligently differentiates between 'Milestone' commits (used for tracking progress on development branches) and 'Delivery' commits (finalized changes), applying the correct pre-commit hook logic for each. By referencing a centralized project tag file and analyzing the scope of changes, it ensures consistency across the repository, automatically links GitHub issues from branch names, and provides file-specific summaries for complex updates without claiming co-authorship.
