It writes more informative commits than I could ever make so I’m just reading what it says and mostly copy/pasting completely most of the time, I write all of the changes I’ve made into an LLM with a large context window and it write a very detailed commit not just with a title but with bullet points describing each of the changes precisely

    I disagree. I am capable of writing a good commit message, I just don’t really want to. Depending on the change, formulating a concise text that includes all relevant information can be quite time consuming.

    I can travel to Italy on foot. Will I do that? Of course not. What does it imply? That I’m incapable of moving my body? Of course not! It just means I’m too lazy to do it and that there are faster ways to get to the same goal.

      how do you write Pull-Requests? Just half-assing it? Writing good commit messages help you write a good PR as well (as it can be just a summary of the things you commited) But yeah, you do you.
