Commit

Create a jj commit from the current working copy changes. Write the commit message in James's preferred style.

Commit Message Style

• All lowercase, no trailing period
• Plain language — no jargon, no abstract verbs (avoid "leverage", "facilitate", "persist", "derive")
• Short and concrete — say what changed, not how you feel about it
• One line is usually enough; only add detail if the "why" isn't obvious from context
• Do not narrate process — describe outcomes

Good examples

fixed bulk create action to save app_auth_needs to database
addressed review comments
added regression test for the oauth token decode issue
refactor user authentication helpers
update dashboard widget to show monthly metrics
removed dead code from payment processor
