Description

This adds some extra, but missing, rules for header validation (#524). Currently, there are some failing tests that need to be resolved first. But I think I might need some help/eyes to get that resolved.

This PR adds two new rules for the header; header-case and header-full-stop. Both are based on the already existing subject-case and subject-full-stop. Like requested in #524, this is useful when no types (and therefore no subject) are used in commits.

In the issue, we also discussed the header-empty, but when using empty commit messages the parser will throw an error describing it "expects a raw commit". That makes the header-empty rule impossible.

Motivation and Context

Usage examples

How Has This Been Tested?

Copied and edited the tests from the existing rules.

This is a simplified version of the subject-full-stop rule. Headers are always present, so we don’t need to check for empty-ness. If headers are not defined, the parser will throw with an error “expecting raw commit”.

I fixed the tests and updated the documentation. I think it's ready to merge once it has been approved 😄

Looks good to me.
Just for my understanding. So, if commitlint isn't finding a type: subject kinda case it falls back to header-only mode and is able to apply these new rules, yes?

Yes exactly, a conventional commit usually consists of this structure:

<header>
<body>
<footer>

The header itself is structured using <type>(<scope>): <subject> right? So if a type isn't defined, the parser can't find the subject. To "work around" that issue, the raw header is also parsed. These rules allow developers to use that workaround 😄

Great! Thanks!
They really should just use the conventional format but 🤷‍♂️ :D
