majordomus commit

The commit as a value: what the working tree would commit and how it divides, the scope vocabulary this repository's history yields, and the verdict on one message against the commit policy

majordomus commit

Usage

majordomus commit [OPTIONS] [COMMAND]

Commands

Arguments

argumentvaluedefaultdescription
--repo <PATH> — Start the search for the repository root here (default: the current directory) (accepted by every subcommand)
--discovery vcs | filesystem vcs How declarative files are enumerated (accepted by every subcommand)
  • vcs — Tracked files, through the version-control index (the layer's contract); a layer none of which is tracked is read from the work tree
  • filesystem — A walk of the work tree with the same glob semantics; untracked files included
--strict flag — Refuse to proceed when any file of the layer carries an error diagnostic (accepted by every subcommand)
--share <DIR> — The tool distribution's share directory (kinds.yaml, schemas/); default: $MAJORDOMUS_SHARE, then the repository's own share/, then the one beside the executable (accepted by every subcommand)
--format text | json text Output shape (accepted by every subcommand)
  • text — Lines for a person
  • json — One JSON document, deterministic

Examples

  • What this tree would commit, and why

    `commit` with nothing after it plans, because that is what a person wants when they ask about committing. The branch, its upstream and divergence, what is staged and what is not, and the commits the history's own scoping supports — each with the evidence for it rather than an assertion. A clean tree says so.

    $ majordomus commit

    What it asserts: exits 0; prints branch, tree, fingerprint.

    Tested by apps/majordomus-cli/tests/cli_examples.rs, which runs the command against the built executable and asserts what the page states.

Where this comes from

Declared once in apps/majordomus-cli/src/cli.rs: clap for the structure, typed Rust metadata beside it for the examples. This page, majordomus commit --help, docs/generated/cli.md and docs/generated/cli.json are projections of that one declaration.

The whole command line on one page: the registry's command-line page. The task lifecycle (init, start, finish, doctor, ...) belongs to the shell tool, a different program: Commands and its specification.
