Yeah - if these are better than your current commit messages, just don't write commit messages. Anyone can read the code.

    side-eye "anyone can read the code" -- usually the first words of someone who writes unreadable code. perl -e'$_=q/dk|jk`%fdk%w`da%qm`%fja`/;s/./chr(ord($&)^5)/seg;print'

      Well, my point is AI won't produce a better commit message than just reading the code. So either write a good commit message or don't write a message at all. AI just produces step by step descriptions that are easily gleaned by skimming the code. In your case it would say

      * "Add perl to print the string anyone gan zea tne gode" (I'm impressed gemini got that close tbh)

      A human would write:

      "Wrote obfuscated perl to see if anyone actually reads the PRs. If they don't my next PR will include an obfuscated shell injection script."
