Git Commit Message FAQs

Question 1

Does the skill analyze my entire project or just staged changes?

Accepted Answer

To ensure accuracy, the skill specifically scans only the changes currently staged in the git index (using git diff --cached). This prevents the AI from including information about modified files that you aren't ready to commit yet.

Question 2

How does this skill improve my developer workflow?

Accepted Answer

It removes the cognitive burden of writing perfect documentation for every small change. By enforcing the 50-character subject limit and 72-character body wrap, it ensures your repository history remains clean, searchable, and professional for your entire team.

Question 3

When should I use this Claude Code skill?

Accepted Answer

Use this skill whenever you are ready to commit code. After you have staged your files with 'git add', invoke this skill to generate a high-quality summary that accurately reflects the 'what' and 'why' of your changes.

Question 4

What does the Git Commit Message skill do?

Accepted Answer

This skill analyzes your staged changes using 'git diff' and generates a professional, standardized commit message that follows industry best practices, such as the Chris Beams 'Seven Rules' for great commits.

Question 5

What specific formatting rules does the skill follow?

Accepted Answer

The skill strictly enforces seven rules: it separates the subject from the body, limits the subject to 50 characters, capitalizes the subject line, omits periods at the end, uses the imperative mood, wraps the body at 72 characters, and focuses on explaining the motivation behind the change.
