SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Groups large code changes into context-based micro-commits to improve reviewability and rollback safety.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Group changes by context (feature, bug fix, refactor)
  • Stage and commit per group following a .gitmessage template
  • Enforce one-commit-per-context discipline for clearer history
  • Ideal for incremental development, code reviews, and CI traceability

Quick Start

Use the git-operations-specialist skill to analyze unstaged changes and create context-based micro-commits.

FAQPage Schema
How do I group unstaged git changes into context-based micro-commits?▼

Grouping unstaged git changes into context-based micro-commits involves analyzing the working tree and staging changes by file type, feature, layer, or purpose. This enforces one-commit-per-context discipline for clearer history and safer rollbacks.

What is the best way to split large code changes for code review?▼

Splitting large code changes for code review is best achieved by grouping modifications into context-based micro-commits. This technique separates features, bug fixes, and refactors into individual commits, significantly improving reviewability and CI traceability.

How does a micro-commit workflow improve version control and rollback safety?▼

A micro-commit workflow improves version control and rollback safety by enforcing one-commit-per-context discipline. Grouping changes by feature or layer ensures that rolling back a specific modification does not undo unrelated unstaged work in the repository.

Do I need the git-operations-specialist skill to create micro-commits?▼

Yes, creating micro-commits requires the git-operations-specialist skill. It analyzes the unstaged changes in your repository working tree and executes git status and git add commands to stage groups following a .gitmessage template.

Can I enforce a specific commit message format when staging micro-commits?▼

Yes, you can enforce a specific commit message format when staging micro-commits by using a .gitmessage template. The workflow stages changes per context group and generates commit messages strictly following this template structure.

What are the limitations of automating micro-commits in a Git repository?▼

Automating micro-commits is limited by its reliance on the git-operations-specialist skill and access to the repository working tree. It requires unstaged changes to be distinctly groupable by file type, feature, layer, or purpose to maintain separation of concerns.
