Thank you for contributing your time and expertise to ORMB. This document describes the contribution guidelines for the project.
Below we describe commit message conventions.
- improve repository maintainability
- provide better history information
- allow auto-generating CHANGELOG.md
- allow ignoring commits by git bisect (e.g. not important commits like formatting)
<type>(<scope>): <subject>
<BLANK LINE>
<body>
<BLANK LINE>
Type is required to better capture the area of the commit. Must be one of the following:
- feat: A new feature
- fix: A bug fix
- docs: Documentation only changes
- style: Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons, etc)
- refactor: A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
- perf: A code change that improves performance
- test: Adding missing or correcting existing tests
- chore: Changes to the build process or auxiliary tools and libraries such as documentation generation
Scope is optional, it is could be anything specifying place of the commit change. Github issue link is also a valid scope. For example: fix(cli), feat(api), fix(#101), etc.
You can use *
when the change affects more than a single scope.
Subject line contains succinct description of the change.
- be descriptive, e.g. "fix(controller): fix incorrect image name causing image pull error", not "fix small bug"
- use imperative, present tense: “change” not “changed” nor “changes”
- don't capitalize first letter
- no dot (.) at the end
Body messge is optional, it should provide detailed desciption for large change
- use imperative, present tense: “change” not “changed” nor “changes”
- includes motivation for the change and contrasts with previous behavior
