Git Commit With Checks

---

name: commit description: Optionally checks, then commits code to the current or a new feature branch.

When asked to commit code, follow these steps:

Arguments

• check (default): Run checks first to lint, build, and test the code. Stop if any checks fail.
• force: Skip the check step and commit directly.

Steps

1. Run these bash commands in parallel to understand the current state:

   • git status to see all untracked files
   • git diff HEAD to see both staged and unstaged changes
   • git log --oneline -10 to see recent commit messages for style consistency

2. If you are on the main branch, create a new feature branch using git branch and switch to it.

3. Analyze all changes and draft a commit message:

   • Summarize the nature of the changes (new feature, enhancement, bug fix, refactoring, test, docs, etc.)
   • Use the conventional commit format: type(scope): description
   • Keep the first line under 72 characters
   • Do not commit files that likely contain secrets (.env, credentials.json, etc.)

4. Stage and commit the changes:

   • Add relevant files using git add
   • Use a plain string for the commit message (do not use HEREDOCs).

5. Report the results including:

   • The commit hash
   • The commit message
