Git workflow for marchat
Default behavior
- Do not run
git commit or git push unless the user explicitly asks.
- Always provide a suggested commit message when implementation work is complete, even if the user did not ask to commit.
- Scope the message to all uncommitted changes (
git status, git diff), including prior uncommitted work from earlier turns in the same session.
- Never amend, force-push, or skip hooks unless the user explicitly requests and conditions are met.
Commit message format
Conventional commits: feat:, fix:, chore:, docs:, style:, ci:, test:.
<type>(<optional scope>): <short summary>
<optional body: why, not a file list>
Examples:
fix(server): use dialect boolean literals in pin toggle SQL
Postgres rejected integer comparison on boolean columns.
docs: refresh TESTING coverage from merged profile
When user asks to commit
- Parallel:
git status, git diff, git log -1 --oneline (style reference).
- Stage only relevant files; warn on secrets (
.env, keys).
- Commit via HEREDOC message; verify with
git status.
- If pre-commit hook fails, fix and new commit (no amend unless rules allow).
Pull requests
Use gh when user asks to create a PR:
- Parallel: status, diff, tracking branch,
git log main...HEAD, git diff main...HEAD.
- Push with
-u only if needed and user asked.
gh pr create with Summary and Test plan sections.
Breaking changes
Note in commit body and CHANGELOG.md when protocol or keystore format breaks compatibility.
