Usage

aicommits-rs

How it works

This CLI tool uses git diff to obtain all of the most recent code changes, and then sends them to OpenAI's GPT-3 to generate a commit message that is returned. If the returned commit message is not satisfactory, you can run the command again to generate a new commit message, otherwise you can use the returned commit message to commit your changes.

Note: An error may occur when the number of changes being made to a file is too large for the OpenAI API to process. To avoid this error, try reducing the number of staged changes or writing your own commit message.

Note: This tool is still in development, and is not guaranteed to work as expected.
