If you switch branches before submitting, and then submit the code, you will find that the AI contribution is 0. Is this because switching branches caused an overwrite? Also, formatting can overwrite records. What are the solutions to these issues

Hey @wangkaizhuang - we're working on this for the next release. If you create a branch AI contributions in the working copy are attributed correctly, but when you checkout a HEAD with a different base sha they're lost. The sha changing is what causes the wip attributions to be lost.

Will look similar to the work we did to fix this in pull --rebase github.com/acunniffe/git-ai@115b82bd4e/src/commands/hooks/fetch_hooks.rs (L57)

Thanks for reporting
