Code Guidelines

Git Guidelines

  • Keep a clean, concise and meaningful git commit history on your branch (within reason), rebasing locally and squashing before submitting a PR.
  • If possible and/or relevant, use the Conventional Commits format when writing a commit message, so that changelogs can be automatically generated
  • Follow the guidelines of writing a good commit message as described here https://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/ and summarised in the next few points:
    • In the subject line, use the present tense ("Add feature" not "Added feature").
    • In the subject line, use the imperative mood ("Move cursor to..." not "Moves cursor to...").
    • Limit the subject line to 67 characters or less.
    • Limit the rest of the commit message to 72 characters or less.
    • Reference issues and pull requests liberally after the subject line.
    • Add more detailed description in the body of the git message (git commit -a to give you more space and time in your text editor to write a good message instead of git commit -am).
