Commit Writer

Commit Writer is a Visual Studio Code extension designed to simplify your commit process by automatically generating concise, accurate, and context-aware git commit messages. Powered by AI, it analyzes your code changes and generates commit messages that adhere to best practices.


Features

  • Automatically generates commit messages based on git diff.
  • Adheres to the conventional commit format: <type>: <description>.
  • Accessible via the status bar button or the VS Code command palette.
  • Ensures commit messages are concise, clear, and context-aware.
  • Reduces the time spent on crafting commit messages.

Smart Git Detection

Commit Writer intelligently adapts to your workspace:
