Your CLI buddy for instant Git commit messages.

Xenogit is your helpful command-line assistant that uses OpenAI GPT to quickly create commit messages that follow the Conventional Commit specification. Stop spending time writing commits and start managing your Git repository effortlessly!

There are two ways to install Xenogit:

1. Using Composer: Run the following command to install Xenogit globally:

composer global require dotninth/xenogit

2. Downloading from GitHub: Visit the Releases page on GitHub and download the appropriate binary.

After installing Xenogit, you can all available options by simply launcing the program:

$ xenogit

  Xenogit  v1.3.2

  USAGE:  <command> [options] [arguments]

  commit         Automatically generate commit messages

  config:api-key Configure the API key in the .env file

Xenogit needs an API key from OpenAI to work properly. There are two options to provide the API key:

1. Use the command xenogit config:api-key <your-api-key>.

2. Using environment variable: Create an environment variable called API_KEY that contains your OpenAI API key.

3. Create a file named .env in the directory where the Xenogit binary is located. This file will be used to store your environment variables. To the .env file, add the following line, replacing <YOUR_API_KEY> with your actual OpenAI API key:

API_KEY=<YOUR_API_KEY>

Using Xenogit will cost you money for each request you make to the OpenAI API. Xenogit uses the official ChatGPT (gpt-3.5-turbo-16k) model, which costs approximately 15 times less than GPT-4. Make sure you have enough funds or credits in your OpenAI account to pay for your usage of Xenogit.
