The commit handler ran `git add <paths>` followed by `git commit` without a pathspec, so anything pre-staged externally before the handler ran was swept into the commit. #2767 fixed every call site to use --files but left the handler emitting a pathspec-less commit, so the bug survived the well-formed form too. Compute pathsToCommit once and pass `'--', ...pathsToCommit` to every git commit invocation: regular, --amend, and commit-to-subrepo. The staged-files check uses the same pathspec so "nothing staged" reflects what would actually be committed, not unrelated index entries. Two follow-up safeguards on the same surface: * When `--files` is passed but every following token gets filtered out (e.g. `--files --no-verify`), reject with `--files requires at least one path` instead of silently falling back to .planning/. * Both `git add` invocations now use the `--` separator so a path starting with `-` (e.g. a file literally named `-A.md`) is treated as a pathspec rather than a git option. Adds five regression tests in `commit.test.ts`: three covering the pathspec scope (`--files`, `.planning/` fallback, and `--amend` with pre-staged unrelated changes), one covering the empty `--files` rejection, and one covering the `-A.md` round-trip. Closes #3061
Changeset Fragments
This directory holds per-PR CHANGELOG fragments. Every PR with user-facing changes drops one (or more) <random-name>.md files here describing its CHANGELOG entry. Fragments are consolidated into the top-level CHANGELOG.md at release time.
Why
Two PRs that both edit the ### Fixed block of CHANGELOG.md always conflict on merge — git can't pick a serialization order without human input. Two PRs that each add a fresh .changeset/<unique-name>.md never conflict because they don't share lines.
See #2975 for the full rationale.
Adding a fragment
node scripts/changeset/new.cjs \
--type Fixed \
--pr 1234 \
--body "fix the thing — explain the user-visible change in one sentence"
This writes .changeset/<adjective>-<noun>-<noun>.md with frontmatter and a body. Three random words → concurrent PRs don't collide.
Format
---
type: Fixed
pr: 1234
---
**`/gsd-foo` no longer drops trailing slashes** — explain the user-visible change.
Allowed type: values follow Keep a Changelog: Added, Changed, Deprecated, Removed, Fixed, Security.
Opting out
PRs that legitimately have no user-facing impact can add the no-changelog label. CI honors it. When unsure, add the fragment.
At release time
node scripts/changeset/cli.cjs render --version vX.Y.Z --date YYYY-MM-DD
Reads every fragment, groups bullets by type:, replaces ## [Unreleased] with a new ## [vX.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD block, opens a fresh ## [Unreleased] above, deletes consumed fragments. Idempotent.
