I don't understand the reasoning for persisting LLM output that can be generated at any point. If I want to use an LLM to understand someone else's commits, I can use the LLM best suited for that task at the time I need the information, which will likely be more accurate than what was available at the time of the commit and will have access to more context. I also believe that commit messages should focus on information the code doesn't already convey. Whatever the LLM can generate from looking at your code is likely not the info I'll seek when I read your commit message.

It looks like it just is based on the git diff and status, at least as far as I can tell in a quick skim… Hypothetically, a tool like this could ingest the bug report you were fixing, some emails, etc etc. It could also read the whole project (to get more context than just the diff). In principle there’s no reason it couldn’t relay more info than just the diff, in some extreme form… Also, it could be seen as producing a starting point. When a person picks which AI generated text to keep, that is enough to add a bit of human spark into the system, right?
