It’s a default that changed silently during an automatic update.

Also I frequently use an LLM to commit work that I have written. It is just misleading in that case.

I think it’s foreseeable that if you use the LLM to commit work you’ve written, it might cause problems with attribution.

In general I assume that attribution to AI is approximate. People copy-paste things out of chats and those don’t get attributed to the AI. And on the flip side, I’ve had AI write a commit, and then I’ve reverted it and written something different by hand (and it got tagged with an LLM session).

The AI attribution is approximate and informative. The commit message and authorship are the more important parts.

You may be concerned that people will think your commits are LLM-generated. I’m sorry that you have to work in that environment, but I don’t work in an environment like that and I don’t share your concerns.

What's misleading? Wouldn't the session corroborate that it was only used for the commit?
