Git Extensions AI Tools

AI-powered commit message generation for Git Extensions.

Features

  • AI-generated commit messages — generates conventional commit messages from staged diffs
  • Auto-fill mode — automatically writes the commit message as you stage/unstage files
  • Commit template — also available as a selectable template in the commit dialog dropdown
  • Multiple LLM providers:
    • Github Copilot CLI
    • Claude Code
    • OpenCode
    • Anthropic (Claude)
    • OpenAI

Installation

Install via GitExtensions.PluginManager:

  1. Open Git Extensions → ToolsPlugin Manager
  2. Search for AI Tools
  3. Install and restart Git Extensions

Configuration

Open Plugins → AI Tools in Git Extensions to configure:

Setting Description Default
Enabled Enable/disable the plugin true
Auto-fill on stage/unstage Automatically fill the commit message box true
Provider LLM provider to use GitHub Copilot
API Key API key (optional for GitHub Copilot / Claude Code / OpenCode)
Model override Use a specific model instead of the provider default
Commit types Comma-separated list of allowed conventional commit types feat, fix, refactor, ...
Custom instructions Appended to the built-in prompt

How It Works

  • With auto-fill enabled (default): The commit message is generated automatically when you stage or unstage files and updates as you go.
  • With auto-fill disabled: Select the "AI: Generate commit message" template from the commit message dropdown to trigger generation.
