📋 Automatically inserts the generated message into the Source Control input box
🧩 Integrated with VS Code's built-in Git UI (button in the Source Control title)
🛡️ API token is securely stored using VS Code's SecretStorage (not settings.json)

🛠️ Requirements

VS Code version 1.101.0 or later
A Git repository must be initialized (git init)
A Google Gemini API token (you'll be prompted on first use)

🚀 Usage

Generate Commit Message

You can generate a commit message in two ways:

Open the Source Control panel
Click the "Generate Commit" button (sparkle ✨ icon) in the Source Control title

Open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P on Windows/Linux, Cmd+Shift+P on macOS, or F1)
Select "Ficommitgen: Generate Commit"

Note: If you have staged changes, it will try to generate commit message based on staged changes first. If not, it will generate commit message based on unstaged changes.

Set Token

To reset or update your API token:

Open the Command Palette
Select "Ficommitgen: Set Token"

⚙️ Extension Settings

There are currently no settings configurable via settings.json.

🐛 Known Issues

If the Gemini API token is missing, incorrect, or rate-limited, commit generation will fail.
