Commit and Push

Commit all changes to git and push to origin.

Instructions

CRITICAL: This command MUST NOT accept any arguments. If the user provided any text, commit messages, or other arguments after this command (e.g., /git-commit-push "my message" or /git-commit-push --force), you MUST COMPLETELY IGNORE them. Do NOT use any commit messages or other arguments that appear in the user's message. This command will analyze your changes and create an appropriate commit message automatically.

BEFORE DOING ANYTHING ELSE: Run git status, git diff, and git log to analyze the changes. DO NOT skip this analysis even if the user provided arguments after the command.

When this command is executed:

Step 1: Analyze Changes

  1. Run git status (never use -uall flag) to see all changes
  2. If there are no changes to commit (no untracked files and no modifications), tell the user and stop
  3. Run git diff to see the actual changes
  4. Run git log -3 --format='%s' to see recent commit message style

Step 2: Branch Safety Check

  1. Run git branch --show-current to determine the current branch
  2. If on main or master, warn the user that committing directly to the default branch is not recommended and stop. Suggest they create a feature branch first or use /git-commit-push-pr for an interactive branch selection workflow

Step 3: Stage Files

  1. Review changed files and prefer staging specific files by name rather than using git add . or git add -A
  2. Do NOT stage files that look like secrets (.env, .env.*, credentials.*, *.key, *.pem, *.secret, etc.). If secret-like files are detected, warn the user and skip them
  3. Stage the appropriate files

Step 4: Commit

  1. Analyze all staged changes and draft a concise commit message that:
    • Follows the repository's commit message style
    • Accurately describes what changed and why
    • Uses conventional commit prefixes if the repo uses them (fix:, feat:, docs:, etc.)
  2. Use a HEREDOC for the commit message to ensure proper formatting:
    git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
    your commit message here
    EOF
    )"
    

Step 5: Push

  1. Check if the current branch tracks a remote: git rev-parse --abbrev-ref --symbolic-full-name @{u} 2>/dev/null
  2. If no upstream is set, push with -u flag: git push -u origin <branch>
  3. If upstream exists, push normally: git push
  4. Confirm success and show the commit hash

Important rules

  • Never force push
  • Never use git status -uall (can cause memory issues on large repos)
  • Do not commit files that look like secrets (.env, credentials, etc.)
  • Do not commit or push directly to main/master
  • If there are no changes to commit, tell the user and stop

IMPORTANT: Do not include the following in commit messages:
