Style Guide for Git Commit Messages 📝

How you can add more value to your contribution logs:

  • Use the present tense. (Example: "Add feature" instead of "Added feature")
  • Use the imperative mood. (Example: "Move item to...", instead of "Moves item to...")
  • Limit the first line (also called the Subject Line) to 50 characters or less.
  • Capitalize the Subject Line.
  • Separate subject from body with a blank line.
  • Do not end the subject line with a period.
  • Wrap the body at 72 characters.
  • Use the body to explain the what, why, vs, and how.
  • Reference Issues and Pull Requests liberally after the first line.
