Why does the tool focus on the 'WHY' of a commit?

Conventional best practices suggest that the diff shows what changed, while the commit body should explain the reasoning to help future maintainers understand the context.

Does it automatically stage all my changes?

No, it assesses your working tree and suggests what to stage, allowing you to approve all or select specific files before the commit is created.

Can I manually specify the commit type or scope?

Yes, you can provide arguments such as '/commit-smart fix' or '/commit-smart refactor api' to override the automatic detection logic.

How does Git Smart Commit determine the commit type?

It analyzes the diff signals, such as file paths and content changes, to categorize updates into standard types like feat, fix, docs, refactor, and more.

Is this skill compatible with standard Git repositories?

Yes, it uses standard Git commands and follows the widely-adopted Conventional Commits specification.

Automates the creation of semantic conventional commits by analyzing staged changes to explain the rationale behind code modifications.

Git Smart Commit is a specialized Claude Code skill designed to streamline version control by generating high-quality, conventional commit messages. It intelligently analyzes your working tree, suggests logical file groupings for staging, and automatically determines the appropriate commit type and scope from code diffs. Unlike standard tools, it prioritizes explaining the 'why' behind changes rather than just describing 'what' changed, ensuring a clean, professional, and informative project history that adheres to industry best practices.
