Huh? Either I don't get it, or they don't get it, or both. I'm so puzzled it's probably both. > Every ghost commit answers: what did I want to happen here? Not what bytes changed. Aren't they just describing what commit messages are supposed to be? Their first `git log --online` output looks normal to me. You don't put the bytes changed in the commit message; git can calculate that from any two states of the tree. You summarize what you're trying to do and why. If you run `git log -p` or `git show`, then yeah you see the bytes changed, in addition to the commit message. Why would you put the commit messages in some separate git repo or storage system? > Ghost snapshots the working tree before and after Claude runs, diffs the two, and stages only what changed. Unrelated files are never touched. That's...just what git does? It's not even possible to stage a file that hasn't changed. > Every commit is reproducible. The prompt is preserved exactly. You can re-run any commit against a fresh checkout to see what Claude generates from the same instruction. This is not what I mean by reproducible. I can re-run any commit against a fresh checkout but Claude will do something different than what it did when they ran it before. | ||
