Update December 12, 2022

OpenAI added additional Cloudflare protections that make it more difficult to access the unofficial API. The tool is not working temporary until I find a way to workaround it.

More details in the issue.

commitgpt

Automatically generate commit messages using ChatGPT.

commitgpt

How to use?

npx commitgpt

Get OpenAI api key

https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys

Configuration (Optional)

you can create .commitgpt.json and/or ..commitgpt-template config files in your project root.

.commitgpt.json file

default:

{
  "model": "text-davinci-003",
  "temperature": 0.5,
  "maxTokens": 2048,
}

this file can be used to change the openai model and other parameters.

.commitgpt-template file

default:

suggest 10 commit messages based on the following diff:
{{diff}}
commit messages should:
 - follow conventional commits
 - message format should be: <type>[scope]: <description>

examples:
 - fix(authentication): add password regex pattern
 - feat(storage): add new test cases

this file can be used to change the template used to generate the prompt request. you can modify the template to fit your needs.

How it works

  • Runs git diff --cached
  • Sends the diff to ChatGPT and asks it to suggest commit messages
  • Shows suggestions to the user
