Requirements

• Python 3.6
• Git installed and accessible in PATH
• OpenAI API key set as an environment variable (OPENAI_API_KEY)

Environment Variables Set the following environment variables in your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc for persistence:

export OPENAI_API_KEY=your-api-key-here
export OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.openai.com/v1  # Optional, defaults to OpenAI API
export OPENAI_MODEL=gpt-4o-mini                   # Optional, defaults to gpt-4o-mini

Add them and reload your shell:

echo 'export OPENAI_API_KEY=your-api-key-here' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.openai.com/v1' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export OPENAI_MODEL=gpt-4o-mini' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc

Usage

Stage your changes in a Git repository:git add .

Run the gommit

Review the generated commit message and choose to commit (y) or abort (n).

Notes

• The script uses git diff --cached to read only staged changes.
• Customize the API endpoint or model via OPENAI_BASE_URL and OPENAI_MODEL environment variables.
• Ensure your Git repository is properly initialized before running.
