Automatic work-in-progress commits with descriptive commit messages generated by GPT-3 Codex
Never again worry about the tension between "commit early, commit often" and
"every commit needs a commit message". All you need is an OpenAI API key, and
gwipt will track every single change in your working directory, on a parallel
wip/ branch.
Make sure the environment variable OPENAI_API_KEY is set to your personal
API key. Then, cd into the repository, and...
gwiptBoom! As long as the program is running, every change you make in the working
tree is now saved, with a descriptive commit message that will be printed to
stdout. Say you're on branch A; then all your changes (including untracked
files) will be automatically committed to wip/A, and you can explore them
whenever you want.
You can see a few testing examples in the
wip/main branch of this
repository. Every commit there that starts with wip: was generated by GPT-3.
This is new and untested software, but I'm pleased enough with the results that
I'm already using it for my personal projects.
