AI Commits

A CLI that writes your git commit messages for you with AI. Never write a commit message again.

Installation and Usage

Install the CLI:
```
npm install -g aicommits
```
Retrieve your API key from OpenAI

Note: If you haven't already, you'll have to create an account and set up billing.

Set the key so aicommits can use it:

echo "OPENAI_KEY=<your token>" >> ~/.aicommits

You're ready to go!

Run aicommits in any Git repo and it will generate a commit message for you.

This CLI tool runs git diff to grab all your latest code changes, sends them to OpenAI's GPT-3, then returns the AI generated commit message.

Video coming soon where I rebuild it from scratch to show you how to easily build your own CLI tools powered by AI.

Add support for conventional commits as a flag that users can enable
Add support for diffs greater than 200 lines by grabbing the diff per file, optional flag
Add ability to specify a commit message from inside aicommit if user doesn't like generated one
Solve latency issue (use a githook to asynchronously run gpt3 call on every git add, store the result in a temp file or in the .git folder). Put behind a flag
Use gpt-3-tokenizer instead of hard limit on characters as a more accurate model
Play around with prompt to produce optimal result
Add opt-in emoji flag to preface commits with an emoji, use this as a guide
Add opt-in languages flag where it returns the commit in different languages
Add automated github releases using this action
Build landing page for the 2.0 launch
