git-commit-pr FAQ

What files get included in the commit?

Only files you explicitly confirm or that the skill selectively stages—it avoids using git add -A or git add . to prevent accidentally committing temporary files, debug code, or unrelated changes.

Do I need to configure the 'official' remote?

Yes, the 'official' remote must point to the upstream repository. The skill will prompt you to configure it if it doesn't exist.

Can the skill merge the PR automatically?

Only if you have merge permissions on the upstream repository and explicitly request it. The skill will then merge, sync with upstream, and clean up temporary branches.

What should the commit message contain?

A concise English description of the changes. The skill will add signoff and author attribution automatically; do not mention AI or automated generation.

What happens after the PR is created?

The PR is created and pushed to the upstream repo. If you request merging and have permissions, the skill handles the merge, branch cleanup, and upstream synchronization.

Bash

Git Commit & PR

提交改动并向 official（上游）仓库创建 Pull Request。

触发条件

当用户要求提交改动并给原始仓库（official）提 PR 时使用此 skill。

执行步骤

创建新分支：git checkout -b <branch-name>，分支名由用户指定或根据改动内容自动生成。
Review 改动：先用 git status 和 git diff 自行检查所有改动，确保没有把临时文件、调试代码或不相关的文件混进来。
暂存文件：git add 相关改动文件。不要使用 git add -A 或 git add .，而是逐个添加相关文件。
提交改动：
```
git commit --signoff --author="Cheney Zhang <chen.zhang@zilliz.com>" -m "<commit message>"
```
- commit message 用英文编写，简洁描述改动内容。
- 绝对不要在 commit message 中提及 AI、Claude、LLM 或任何自动生成相关的字样。
推送分支：git push origin <branch-name>。
创建 PR：
```
gh pr create --repo <official-owner/repo> --title "<PR title>" --body "<PR description>"
```
- PR 标题和描述用英文编写。
- 绝对不要在 PR 标题或描述中提及 AI、Claude、LLM 或任何自动生成相关的字样。
- 不要添加 Co-Authored-By 之类的 AI 相关标记。
如果用户有合并权限且要求合并：
- Review PR 并合并。
- 切回主分支（main 或 master）。
- 同步上游：git fetch official && git reset --hard official/<main-branch>。
- 删除本地临时分支：git branch -d <branch-name>。
- 删除远端临时分支：git push origin --delete <branch-name>。
