Smart Commit

Create a high-quality commit for current changes.

Execution

Inventory changes: run git status and git diff (plus git diff --staged for already-staged work) to see everything that changed.
Group related changes into logical commits — list the files that belong to each group so one commit maps to one concern.
Run available quality gates (test suite, linter, formatter) if the project configures them, and fix failures before committing.
Stage each group in turn with git add <files>.
Craft a Conventional Commits message — type(scope): description, with a body that explains why the change was made.
Commit the staged group.
Confirm the result with git log --oneline -n (choose n to cover the commits you just made).

Repeat steps 4-6 for each group so unrelated changes land in separate commits. The format and type reference below is your guide for steps 5-6.
