## What it is
A Rust CLI tool that uses OpenAI's GPT-3.5 to automatically generate commit messages from your staged git changes. It supports dry-run output and reviewing/editing the generated message before committing.

## Use cases
- generate commit messages automatically from staged changes
- write git commit messages with AI
- avoid writing commit messages manually
- preview AI-generated commit message before committing
- speed up git workflow with automatic commit messages

## When to choose
- you want fast, automatic commit messages from staged diffs
- you prefer a lightweight Rust binary over Node-based alternatives
- you already have an OpenAI API key

## When to avoid
- you don't want to send code diffs to OpenAI's API
- you need local/offline commit message generation
- you need a tool that's actively updated or supports newer models
