## Code | ||
`// TODO` | ||
|
||
## Commit message format | ||
|
||
### Message Structure | ||
|
||
A commit messages consists of three distinct parts separated by a blank line: the title, an optional body and an optional footer. The layout looks like this: | ||
``` | ||
type: subject | ||
body | ||
footer | ||
``` | ||
The title consists of the type of the message and subject. | ||
|
||
### The Type | ||
|
||
The type is contained within the title and can be one of these types: | ||
* feat: a new feature | ||
* fix: a bug fix | ||
* docs: changes to documentation | ||
* style: formatting, missing semi colons, etc; no code change | ||
* refactor: refactoring production code | ||
* test: adding tests, refactoring test; no production code change | ||
* chore: updating build tasks, package manager configs, etc; no production code change | ||
|
||
### The Subject | ||
|
||
Subjects should be no greater than 50 characters, should begin with a capital letter and do not end with a period. | ||
|
||
Use an imperative tone to describe what a commit does, rather than what it did. For example, use change; not changed or changes. | ||
|
||
### The Body | ||
|
||
Not all commits are complex enough to warrant a body, therefore it is optional and only used when a commit requires a bit of explanation and context. Use the body to explain the what and why of a commit, not the how. | ||
|
||
When writing a body, the blank line between the title and the body is required and you should limit the length of each line to no more than 72 characters. | ||
|
||
### The Footer | ||
|
||
The footer is optional and is used to reference issue tracker IDs. | ||
|
||
### Example Commit Message | ||
|
||
``` | ||
feat: Summarize changes in around 50 characters or less | ||
More detailed explanatory text, if necessary. Wrap it to about 72 | ||
characters or so. In some contexts, the first line is treated as the | ||
subject of the commit and the rest of the text as the body. The | ||
blank line separating the summary from the body is critical (unless | ||
you omit the body entirely); various tools like `log`, `shortlog` | ||
and `rebase` can get confused if you run the two together. | ||
Explain the problem that this commit is solving. Focus on why you | ||
are making this change as opposed to how (the code explains that). | ||
Are there side effects or other unintuitive consequenses of this | ||
change? Here's the place to explain them. | ||
Further paragraphs come after blank lines. | ||
- Bullet points are okay, too | ||
- Typically a hyphen or asterisk is used for the bullet, preceded | ||
by a single space, with blank lines in between, but conventions | ||
vary here | ||
If you use an issue tracker, put references to them at the bottom, | ||
like this: | ||
Resolves: #123 | ||
See also: #456, #789 | ||
