When you complete a user request that involves modifying files or code, you MUST automatically create a git commit to save the changes. This ensures that every successful AI intervention is snapshotted.
After finishing the code modifications for the user's request:
Surgical Staging: Do NOT use git add .. Instead, stage ONLY the files you have explicitly modified:
git add <file_path1> <file_path2> ...Filter by Type: If multiple files were changed, ensure you are only staging source code files (e.g., .py, .go, .sol, .js, .ts, .md). Avoid staging environment files ( .env), binaries, or large assets.
Verify: If unsure, run git status to confirm only the intended changes are staged.
Commit: Run git commit -m "<message>" with a concise, descriptive summary of your changes.
Do not ask for permission; execute the commit automatically. If the user explicitly asks not to commit, respect their request. Skip if not a git repository or no changes were made.
