note: gif is outdated

This command is useful for newcomers, or when you don't remember the meaning of each change type. It will display a prompt which will guide the user in the commit creation.

cz commit

git cz commit

Automatic version bump

Automatic version bump with changelog generation.

cz bump --changelog

Note: The --changelog flag is not required if update_changelog_on_bump = true

Automatic Changelog Generation

If you don't want to generate a tag and bump the version, run:

cz changelog

This will create a changelog with unreleased commits, alternatively, you can run

cz changelog --incremental

to add only the missing changes. This is useful if you have manually modified your changelog.

Validate Commit Message

This command will tell you if there are any valid or invalid commit messages in the given range.

You can also add it to .pre-commit hooks or manually as a git hook.

More info in commitizen website.

cz check --rev-range ugnu348hg84hg84g..j8fj84g84h84hg83h2392

You can also check against the last version:

cz check --rev-range "$(cz version -p).."

Configuration

The recommendation is to run cz init which will help you create the right configuration and file.

You can also add manually to your pyproject.toml or create a .cz.toml file with:

[tool.commitizen]
name = "cz_kpn"
version = "<YOUR_CURRENT_VERSION>"
version_files = [
  "src/__version__.py"
]
