committing-and-pushing skillA
committing-and-pushing is agent-read markdown (skill) from clickety-clacks/tightbeam: Commit and push discipline — build before committing, one concern per commit with behavior and structure never mixed, deliberate staging, semantic reconciliation before main advances. Use when committing, pushing, or merging a branch toward main..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified before it reaches your agent: the main file against the SHA-256 recorded here, the others against the git hashes of its source commit. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Committing and pushing ## Every commit 1. Build before you commit. Run the build and the tests the change touches; a commit that does not build is never pushed. A broken commit on a shared branch breaks every colleague who pulls it. 2. `git status` and `git diff` first: know exactly what you are committing, and confirm every staged change is yours. Stage deliberately — do not sweep in files you did not change. 3. One concern per commit, and never behavior and structure in the same one. A commit that both moves code and changes what it does cannot be reviewed under one lens — the reviewer-code session cannot tell which lines are supposed to change output. Split them: structure commits reviewed for direction, behavior commits reviewed for correctness. A tangled commit is also permanent damage — it poisons blame, bisect, and defect archaeology long after it merges. 4. Message: concise, descriptive, states what the change does. No co-author lines, no tool or model attributions, no generated-by noise. 5. Push to your own branch. ## Merging your branch into main Merging is a semantic integration problem, not a text-selection problem. …

How to install
mdr add clickety-clacks/tightbeam/committing-and-pushing@git:20260905.dbe46a8mdr add clickety-clacks/tightbeam/committing-and-pushing@sha256:54d37f8aa679daf3Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 for exact bytes. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install fetches those bytes again and checks them, so it installs them exactly or fails.
