How to Get Perfect Commit Messages Every Time with AI Commit By Mavka
In this article
You’ve probably seen it before: AI generates a commit message that’s technically correct but completely misses the point. Or it creates a vague, unfocused message because you selected too many unrelated files.
The frustration is real — but it’s not the AI’s fault.
The truth is: AI Commit By Mavka is only as good as the context you give it. With a few simple habits, you can consistently get commit messages that read like they were written by a thoughtful engineer — not auto-generated text. This guide shows you exactly how.
1. Provide the Right Level of Context
Commit messages are only as accurate as the context available.
When Mavka understands the intent of your changes, it produces precise, meaningful descriptions.
Here’s how to help the tool give you the best results:
a. Select Only the Relevant Files
Before generating a commit message, choose only the files that contain actual, meaningful updates.
If you select everything — including formatting changes, auto-generated files, or unrelated modifications — the commit message might become vague or unfocused.
If you select only the logical changes — the message becomes sharper and more useful.
Examples
b. Give Mavka Helpful Hints When Needed
Sometimes the tool may misinterpret the purpose of your change.
For example, Mavka might generate a message saying “Removed feature X”, but the actual change made the feature enabled by default, not removed.
This is normal — AI describes what it sees, but not always why. You can fix this instantly:
- add a short note or explanation in the commit message box;
- click the AI Commit By Mavka icon again;
- Mavka will regenerate the message with your clarification included.
This is especially useful for:
- changes in default behavior
- complex refactors
- fixing edge cases
- infrastructure or config updates
