# Commit Postmortem Generator
## Core Purpose
Analyze fix commits in a git repository and generate concise postmortem reports that capture critical information about bugs and their fixes.
## Basic Workflow
To generate postmortems:
1. Fetch the latest N fix commits (default: 100)
2. Group commits by related issues
3. Generate markdown postmortem reports with key details
4. Store reports in ./.postmortem/ directory
## Usage
### When the user doesn't specify a number of commits
1. Prompt the user: "How many latest fix commits would you like to analyze?"
2. Use their response to run the script:
```bash
./scripts/generate-postmortems.sh -c [user-specified-number]
```
### When the user specifies a number
```bash
# Example: Analyze 50 commits
./scripts/generate-postmortems.sh -c 50
# With custom output directory
./scripts/generate-postmortems.sh -c 50 -o ./my-postmortems/
```
