Commit Your Work in AI

COMMIT WORKFLOW:

Once step works AND tests pass:
1. Stage changes: git add .
2. Write descriptive message
3. Commit: git commit -m "feat: implement NextAuth credentials provider"

COMMIT MESSAGE FORMAT (Conventional Commits):
- feat: add user authentication
- fix: resolve login redirect issue
- test: add unit tests for auth flow
- refactor: simplify error handling
- docs: update README with setup instructions
- style: format code with prettier
- chore: update dependencies

When to commit:
✅ After each implementation step (if it works)
✅ After fixing a bug
✅ After refactoring
✅ Before switching to different feature
✅ At end of work session

When NOT to commit:
❌ When code doesn't run
❌ When tests are failing
❌ Just to "save progress" on broken code (use git stash instead)

PRO TIP:
If halfway through something and need to switch:
git stash save "WIP: halfway through login form"
# Work on something else
git stash pop  # Come back to it later
