## Overview
Good commits are small, self-explanatory units of change with messages that tell
future readers why the change exists. This guide covers the full craft:
splitting work into atomic commits, writing messages in the Conventional
Commits style, and keeping branch history reviewable — whether you write
messages by hand or draft them with AI assistance.
## When to use
- Turning a messy working tree into clean, logical commits
- Writing commit messages that explain rationale, not just content
- Adopting Conventional Commits (`feat:`, `fix:`) on a team
- Tidying a branch before opening a pull request
