zdev change-id

Generate a new stable ID for a Zdev-Change-Id commit trailer. Use this when preparing a commit outside the usual zdev commit command.

Terminal window
zdev change-id
zdev change-id --format json
zdev change-id

The command prints an ID without changing Git state. It does not attach the ID to a commit. zdev commit generates and adds an ID automatically, which is the usual way to commit completed work.

Use zdev change to inspect a commit’s existing ID or find commits that carry one.
