Description

Standardized process for creating meaningful Git commits using Arlo's notation.

Steps

  1. Summarize Changes

  2. Update Discovery Tree

If project has discovery-tree.md:

  • If changes are refactoring only and there is no refactoring step, skip to step 3 (draft commit message)
  • Otherwise load discovery-tree skill
  • Summarize using ASCII drawing
  • Ask user what to change in discovery tree, if anything. Wait for response.
  1. Draft Commit Message
  • Read Arlo's Commit Notation before drafting commit message
  • Use AskUserQuestionTool for user to approve message or ask for changes
  1. Commit
  • Run git status to find any untracked new files that belong in this commit
  • After staging files, check git status again to double-check
  • Run git commit -m "<message>"
