It writes more informative commits than I could ever make so I’m just reading what it says and mostly copy/pasting completely most of the time, I write all of the changes I’ve made into an LLM with a large context window and it write a very detailed commit not just with a title but with bullet points describing each of the changes precisely
Not having to swap over to a ticketing system just to see the context of a change is really nice (Or to add context on why changes are done a certain way). One line that says what you changed, then any context such as why it was done that way, and important notes about that change works wonders. It’s pretty much the exact model the Linux kernel uses, and it makes looking at changes great for anyone down the line.

If you’re posting long videos try to add in some form of tldr for those who don’t want to watch videos
How about prefixing your commit with a ticket number?
If a commit message has too much information, then the commit has too much changes
