msgit — message it — generates a commit message from your staged changes using Ollama.

The name is a mashup of "message" and "git": you stage your changes, run msgit, and it messages you what to commit.

• Ollama running locally with qwen3:8b pulled:

  ollama pull qwen3:8b

# Preview the generated message
git add <files>
msgit

# Pipe directly into git commit
msgit | git commit -F -

# Open editor pre-filled with the generated message
go run ./msgit | git commit -e -F -

# Copy to clipboard (macOS)
msgit | pbcopy

msgit collects three pieces of context from git:

1. Staged diff (git diff --cached) — the actual changes
2. Branch name — hints at the feature or ticket
3. Recent commits — matches the style and scope of the project

It sends these to qwen3:8b via the local Ollama API and prints the result to stdout. Thinking tokens (<think>…</think>) that qwen3 emits are stripped before output.

The generated message follows Conventional Commits:

<type>(<scope>): <summary>

<optional body explaining why>
