About

What is opencommit?

OpenCommit is a powerful AI tool designed to automate the generation of meaningful Git commit messages. It acts as a GPT wrapper for Git, supporting a wide range of LLM providers such as Claude, GPT, and local Ollama models. The tool aims to eliminate 'lame commits' by providing relevant and descriptive messages in seconds, significantly streamlining the development workflow. Users can install it as a CLI tool, configure API keys for their chosen LLM provider, and customize settings like emoji usage, model selection, and language. OpenCommit also offers advanced features like integration with @commitlint for adherence to specific commit message conventions and the ability to run locally with Ollama for enhanced privacy and control.

FAQs

How do I set up OpenCommit with my preferred LLM provider?

After installing OpenCommit globally, you need to obtain an API key from your chosen LLM provider (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic). Then, use the `oco config set OCO_API_KEY=<your_api_key>` command to configure OpenCommit with your key. You can also specify the AI provider and model using similar config commands.

Can OpenCommit be used with local models like Ollama?

Yes, OpenCommit fully supports local Ollama models. You need to install and start Ollama, pull your desired model (e.g., `ollama run mistral`), and then configure OpenCommit by setting `OCO_AI_PROVIDER='ollama'` and `OCO_MODEL='llama3:8b'` in your project's `.env` file or globally.

Does OpenCommit support custom commit message conventions?

Yes, OpenCommit allows you to switch between its default `conventional-commit` module and the `@commitlint` prompt module. By setting `OCO_PROMPT_MODULE=@commitlint`, OpenCommit will generate messages in respect to your local commitlint configuration, ensuring adherence to project-specific standards.
