Volto Commit Messages

Volto uses the (conventional commit specification)[https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/#specification] for consistent commit messages.

All commit messages should have the following form:

<type>: <description>

Fix

A fix (PATCH in semantic versioning) looks like this:

fix: correct minor typos in code

A new feature (MINOR in semantic versioning) looks like this:

feat: add catalan language

Breaking changes can be indicated by either appending a "!" to the type:

refactor!: drop support for Node 6

Or adding "BREAKING CHANGE" to the commit message body text:

refactor!: drop support for Node 6

BREAKING CHANGE: refactor to use JavaScript features not available in Node 6.

In addition to "fix" and "feat" the following types are allowed: build:, chore:, ci:, docs:, style:, refactor:, perf:, test:

Install commitlint:

npm install --save-dev @commitlint/{config-conventional,cli}

or via yarn:

yarn add @commitlint/{config-conventional,cli}

Create a commitlint.config.js file:

echo "module.exports = {extends: ['@commitlint/config-conventional']}" > commitlint.config.js

Add husky to package.json:

{
  "husky": {
    "hooks": {
      "commit-msg": "commitlint -E HUSKY_GIT_PARAMS"
    }  
  }
}
