Commit

Commit

Commit only what you changed in this session. Other sessions may be working in the same repo at the same time; that is expected, and none of their work is yours to commit.

Process

1. List your files. From this conversation, write down every file you created, edited, or deleted. If you touched nothing, say so and stop.
2. Check the tree. Run git status --porcelain. Anything not on your list belongs to someone else, ignore it completely.
3. Drop the overlaps. For each of your files, git diff -- <path> (git diff --cached too if it is already staged). If it contains changes you did not make, leave that file out, the other session will commit it. Note which files you skipped.
4. Stage explicitly. git add -- <path> <path> … with your remaining files, by exact path. Never git add -A or git add .. Re-run git status --porcelain and unstage anything foreign.
5. Commit. Conventional Commits subject: type(scope): summary: imperative mood, lowercase, no trailing period, under 72 chars. Types: feat, fix, refactor, docs, test, chore, perf, build, ci. Scope optional. Add a short body only when why is not obvious from the diff. No attribution or co-author trailers.
6. Report. One line: the commit subject, the short SHA, and any files you deliberately left out and why. Do not push unless asked.

Guardrails

• Commit to the current branch, whatever it is. Never switch, create, or suggest a branch, not even when the current branch is main/master. No git checkout, git switch, git branch.
• One session's work, one commit. Do not amend, rebase, or touch existing history.
• If the changes are genuinely two unrelated things, make two commits, still your files only.
• Never git stash, git checkout --, or git reset: a parallel session's uncommitted work is unrecoverable if you discard it.
