security
no shell injection
every git command uses exec.Command with explicit args — no shell interpolation, ever. input is sanitized before it touches anything.
exec.Command("git", "commit", "-m", msg)
token storage
GitHub token saved to ~/.config/commitdog/config.toml with 0600 permissions — only your user can read it.
network calls
zero on normal commits, log, and reverts. only init, pr, and release call the GitHub API. no background pings, ever.
diff size cap
diffs are capped at 200KB — no memory spikes on massive changesets, no surprise hangs.
