Commit Message Guidelines

The commit message is used to both inform the reader and automate the release process using semantic-release. To this end, we follow the Conventional Commits specification.

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)]: <description>

[body]

[footer]

Examples

Feature Commit Message Example
feat(travis-ci): add npm caching

Set cache to 'npm'
Breaking Change Commit Message Example
perf(tsconfig): change target to es6

Change ECMAScript target to es6 (es2015)

BREAKING CHANGE:

Change ECMAScript target from es5 to es6 (es2015)

Type

Must be one of the following:

  • feat: A new feature
  • fix: A bug fix
  • perf: A code change that improves performance
  • refactor: A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
  • style: Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons, etc)
  • test: Adding missing tests or correcting existing tests
  • config: Changes to our configuration files and scripts (Git, Travis CI, etc.)
  • docs: Documentation only changes

Scope

The scope must:

  • be a single word noun
  • be surrounded with parentheses
  • use the name of the part that was altered in the change
