Writing a Good Git Commit Message

 

Conventional Commits

The conventional commit message style is another way you can level up your commit messages. The conventional commits structure involves starting your commit message with a specified commit type. Commit types include:

Feat– feature

Fix– bug fixes

Docs– changes to the documentation like README

Style– style or formatting change

Perf – improves code performance

Test– test a feature

Using the conventional commit method makes it easy for project contributors to filter and search for specific commits, as shown in the example below:

 

Summary:

Docs: Fixes typo on in-from-the-depths.md

Description:

Closes ticket #54321
