AI Git Commit Message Generator Following Conventional Commits

A good commit message tells the next developer (and future you) why a change was made, not just what files changed. The diff already shows what changed. The commit message is for context, motivation, and searchability. Our AI generator produces commit messages that follow the Conventional Commits specification - with the right type (feat, fix, refactor, chore), an accurate scope, and a concise subject line under 72 characters.

Paste the output of git diff --staged for the most accurate result, or describe your changes in plain English. The AI infers the correct type and writes a message you can commit with confidence. For reviewing the code that goes along with the commit, try our Code Explainer. For testing the code before committing, use our Unit Test Generator.

Why Good Commit Messages Matter

A commit log is a timeline of decisions. When something breaks six months from now, the person debugging it will read through git blame and git log to understand why code was written a certain way.

Searchable History

Conventional Commits makes git log --grep useful. Find every feature or fix by type and scope instantly.

Automated Changelogs

semantic-release parses Conventional Commits to generate changelogs and bump version numbers automatically.

Faster Code Review

Reviewers understand intent before opening a single file. A clear commit message cuts review time significantly.

50/72 Rule Enforced

Subject lines kept under 72 characters, imperative mood, with a blank line before any body paragraph.

Works from Diffs

Paste git diff --staged and the AI reads your actual changes to produce the most accurate message possible.

Custom Styles Supported

GitHub-style, Angular-style, and Jira-linked commit formats are all available - just specify your preference.

Frequently Asked Questions

Conventional Commits is a specification for adding human and machine-readable meaning to commit messages. Format: type(scope): description. It enables automated changelogs and semantic versioning tools like semantic-release.
Yes. Describe a breaking change and the generator adds BREAKING CHANGE: in the commit body and a ! after the type - as per the Conventional Commits spec.
The AI will note this and either write a commit covering all changes or recommend splitting into separate commits. Atomic commits are easier to revert and review.
Tell the AI the issue number ("This fixes JIRA-1234") and it will include the reference in the commit body or footer in the correct format for your tracker.
