Replace `git diff HEAD` with `git diff HEAD --stat` in both commit.md and commit-push-pr.md. The full unified diff was loading into Claude's context on every invocation, bloating sessions by 700KB+ on large commits (e.g. SQL regen with 50+ auto-generated files). The --stat summary is sufficient for generating a commit message; full per-file diffs can be fetched on demand if needed. Fixes anthropics#58372 Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Test plan
/commiton a repo with a small diff — stat summary appears in context, commit message is generated correctly/commiton a repo with a large diff (many files) — context stays small, no 700KB+ injection/commit-push-pr— same behaviour, PR is created successfully🤖 Generated with Claude Code
