smartcommit - Build the habit of writing meaningful commit messages

by
Too often I find myself being lazy with commit messages. But I don't want AI to write them for me... only i truly know why i wrote the code i did. That's why i built 'smartcommit'. It asks you questions about your changes, then helps you articulate what you already know into a proper commit message. Captures the what, how, and why. Built this after repeatedly being confused 6 months in a project as to why i made the change i had made...

Hi everyone! 👋 Really excited to share smartcommit with you today. I kept catching myself writing quick, vague commit messages and then wondering months later what I was thinking at the time. I didn’t want AI to write commits for me — I just wanted something to help me put my own reasoning into clearer words. That’s why I built smartcommit. It looks at your staged changes, asks a few helpful questions, and turns your own intent into a clean, Conventional Commit message. If you give it a try, I’d love to hear what you think or what would make it more useful.
