File contents

Commit Style — Conventional Commits

Generates commit messages following the Conventional Commits / Angular convention for clear, consistent version history.

Format

<type>(<scope>): <subject>

[optional body]

[optional footer]

Types

Type	Use
`feat`	New feature
`fix`	Bug fix
`docs`	Documentation only changes
`style`	Formatting, whitespace, no logic change
`refactor`	Neither fix nor feature
`perf`	Performance improvement
`test`	Adding or updating tests
`build`	Build system or external dependencies
`ci`	CI/CD configuration changes
`chore`	Other maintenance tasks
`revert`	Reverting a previous commit

Rules

Subject: ≤72 chars (50 preferred), lowercase, imperative mood, no trailing period.
Imperative test: "If applied, this commit will [subject]".
Scope: Specific module/component in lowercase — e.g. feat(auth), fix(api), docs(readme), refactor(core).
Body: Optional. Explain WHY/WHAT, not HOW. Wrap at 72 chars. Blank line between subject and body.
Footer: Optional. BREAKING CHANGE: …, Closes #N, Co-Authored-By: ….

Atomic Commits

One logical change per commit. Split unrelated changes into separate commits — this makes surgical rollback and git bisect possible.

Examples

Simple feature:

feat(auth): add password reset functionality

Bug fix with issue reference:

fix(api): handle null response from user endpoint

The /users/:id endpoint could return null for deleted users,
causing a crash in the profile component.

Closes #456

Breaking change:

feat(api): change authentication to JWT

Migrate from session-based auth to JWT tokens for better
scalability and stateless operation.

BREAKING CHANGE: All API clients must now include JWT token
in Authorization header. Session cookies no longer accepted.

Documentation update:

docs(readme): update installation instructions

Add troubleshooting section for common npm issues
and clarify Node.js version requirements.

Anti-Patterns

Vague subjects: "fix bug", "update stuff"
Past/present tense: "added", "adds" — use the imperative "add"
Multiple changes in one commit: "add login and fix navbar"
Implementation trivia: "change line 47"
Emotional language: "finally fixed!!!"
