* What does it do?

  ~git-auto-commit-mode~ is a minor mode for GNU Emacs that, when
  enabled, tries to commit changes to a file after every save. It can
  also try to push to the default upstream.

* Why was it written?

  Some projects / files don't need a very fancy commit log or anything
  and are typically only modified in small ways. Configuration files
  are a good example, where most changes are just single lines added,
  removed or changed. In these projects it can save some effort to
  just automatically commit them after every change.

* Who is it for?

  Anyone who makes a lot of small, separate, changes to a bunch if
  git-tracked files and is tired of always having to go through the
  =git add; git commit -m description= process.
