About CodeGPT
appleboy/CodeGPT
A CLI written in Go language that writes git commit messages or do a code review brief for you using ChatGPT AI (gpt-4.1, gpt-4o model) and automatically installs a git prepare-commit-msg hook.
This tool helps developers streamline their Git workflow by automatically generating clear, conventional Git commit messages based on their code changes. It takes your uncommitted code changes as input and outputs a suggested commit message, or it can provide a brief summary for code reviews. Software developers and engineers who regularly commit code would use this to save time and maintain consistent commit history.
