NAME

zoryn-commit - Commit with spec changelog as message.

SYNOPSIS

zoryn commit [OPTION]… [GIT-ARGS]…

DESCRIPTION

Create a git commit using the latest changelog entry from the spec file as the commit message. The changelog version-release becomes the subject line and the changelog text becomes the body.

Without options, finds the spec file automatically (via .gear/rules or single *.spec in repo root) and extracts the topmost changelog entry.

The message is opened in the same editor git commit would use (via git var GIT_EDITOR). Save the buffer to commit; exit without saving (vim :q!) to abort; empty message also aborts. Pass --no-edit to skip the editor and commit the prefilled message directly.

For vim-family editors (vim/vi/nvim/gvim) the message is piped through stdin and the buffer is renamed via :file, which makes vim mark it as modified — so ZZ / :wq / :x on an unchanged prefilled buffer all commit (unlike opening vim on a real file, where ZZ on an unchanged buffer is a no-op). For other editors, git orchestrates the editor itself (git commit -F file --edit).

ARGUMENTS

GIT-ARGS: Additional arguments for git commit.

OPTIONS

-a, --all: Stage all changes before committing.
--amend: Amend the last commit.
-C DIR: Change to directory DIR before running.
-d, --debug: Enable debug output.
-m TEXT, --message=TEXT: Use TEXT as commit message directly.
--no-edit: Skip the editor and commit the prefilled message directly.
--spec=FILE: Use specified spec file for changelog extraction.

COMMON OPTIONS

--help[=FMT] (default=auto): Show this help in format FMT. The value FMT must be one of auto, pager, groff or plain. With auto, the format is pager or plain whenever the TERM env var is dumb or undefined.
--version: Show version information.

EXIT STATUS

zoryn commit exits with:

0: on success.
123: on indiscriminate errors reported on standard error.
124: on command line parsing errors.
125: on unexpected internal errors (bugs).

EXAMPLES

  zoryn commit

  zoryn commit -a

Amend the last commit:



  zoryn commit --amend

Use a specific spec file:



  zoryn commit --spec .gear/mypackage.spec

Use a custom message instead of changelog:



  zoryn commit -m 'fix build on aarch64'

Pass extra arguments to git commit:



  zoryn commit -- --signoff
