zc config set language=de
zc config set language=German
zc config set language=Deutsch

The ziopencommit
or zc
commands can be used in place of the git commit -m "${generatedMessage}"
command. This means that any regular flags that are used with the git commit
command will also be applied when using ziopencommit
or zc
.
zc --no-verify
is translated to :
git commit -m "${generatedMessage}" --no-verify
You can ignore files from submission to OpenAI by creating a .ziopencommitignore
file. For example:
path/to/large-asset.zip
**/*.jpg
This is useful for preventing ziopencommit from uploading artifacts and large files.
By default, ziopencommit ignores files matching: *-lock.*
and *.lock
You can set ZiOpenCommit as Git prepare-commit-msg
hook. Hook integrates with you IDE Source Control and allows you edit the message before commit.
To set the hook:
zc hook set
To unset the hook:
zc hook unset
To use the hook:
git add <files...>
git commit
Or follow the process of your IDE Source Control feature, when it calls git commit
command — Zi OpenCommit will integrate into the flow.
