Mackewinsson Git Commit
Only commit when the user explicitly asks.
Before committing
Run in parallel:
git status
git diff
git diff --staged
git log -3 --oneline
Safety
- Never update git config
- Never
--no-verify,--force, or destructive git unless explicitly requested - Never commit
.env, credentials, or secrets — warn if requested - Never
git commit --amendunless user asked AND HEAD is yours AND not pushed - If a hook fails, fix and create a new commit (do not amend a failed commit)
- Never push unless explicitly asked
Message
