Prerequisites

  • Python 3.8+
  • At least one AI provider API key:
    • Anthropic API key for Claude models, default is claude-sonnet-4-5
    • OpenAI API key for GPT models, openai Python package for OpenAI support, default is gpt-4o-mini
  • Git, all gitme commands must be run from within a git repository directory. If you're not in a git repository, you'll see an error message prompting you to initialize a git repository with git init.

Features

  • Analyzes git diffs to generate contextually relevant commit messages
  • Detects untracked files and prompts to add them
  • Supports staged changes only or all modified files
  • Streamline your git workflow: add files, commit and push to upstream branch with user confirmation on every step, extremely lightweight and fast.
  • User input: Option to edit and then confirm the messages before committing
  • Multiple AI Providers: Choose between Anthropic or OpenAI, default is Anthropic
  • Model options for both providers
  • File changes and commit message history for logging, search and review at local
  • Repository-specific message storage

Privacy & Security Notice

⚠️ Important: When using gitme or gitme generate, your code changes will be sent to the selected AI provider (Anthropic Claude or OpenAI GPT) for processing. The tool does NOT send your entire codebase - only the diff contents of changed files.

Please exercise caution when using this tool:

  • Avoid using it with repositories containing sensitive information, credentials, or proprietary code
  • Review your changes before running the command to ensure no sensitive data is included
  • Consider using .gitignore to exclude sensitive files from git tracking
  • Be aware that different providers have different data handling policies
  • Both Anthropic and OpenAI have their own privacy policies and data retention practices

New Release

chmod +x release.sh && ./release.sh <version>

then upload to PyPI

twine upload dist/*

Roadmap

  • User feedback on the generated message and modify accordingly
  • Add a way to add custom prompt to the AI provider
  • add features: search messages and return commit_id, rewind to a previous commit, redo the commit message, etc.
  • Local models with Ollama support
