## Git Commit Guidelines | ||
|
||
These rules are adopted from the AngularJS project. | ||
|
||
### Commit Message Format | ||
Each commit message consists of a **header**, a **body** and a **footer**. The header has a special | ||
format that includes a **type**, a **scope** and a **subject**: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
<type>(<scope>): <subject> | ||
<BLANK LINE> | ||
<body> | ||
<BLANK LINE> | ||
<footer> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Any line of the commit message cannot be longer 100 characters! This allows the message to be easier | ||
to read on github as well as in various git tools. | ||
|
||
### Type | ||
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 or adds a feature | ||
* **test**: Adding missing tests | ||
* **chore**: Changes to the build process or auxiliary tools and libraries such as documentation | ||
generation | ||
|
||
### Scope | ||
The scope could be anything specifying place of the commit change. For example `app`, | ||
`gen`, `docs`, `gen:view`, `gen:route`, `gen:service`, etc... | ||
|
||
### Subject | ||
The subject contains succinct description of the change: | ||
|
||
* use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes" | ||
* don't capitalize first letter | ||
* no dot (.) at the end | ||
|
||
###Body | ||
Just as in the **subject**, use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes" | ||
The body should include the motivation for the change and contrast this with previous behavior. | ||
|
||
When submitting a PR, make sure that the commit messages match the [AngularJS conventions](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QrDFcIiPjSLDn3EL15IJygNPiHORgU1_OOAqWjiDU5Y/). | ||
###Footer | ||
The footer should contain any information about **Breaking Changes** and is also the place to | ||
reference GitHub issues that this commit **Closes**. | ||
|
||
When submitting a bugfix, write a test that exposes the bug and fails before applying your fix. Submit the test alongside the fix. | ||
A detailed explanation can be found in this [document][commit-message-format]. | ||
|
||
When submitting a new feature, add tests that cover the feature. | ||
