Git Styleguide

Git Commit Messages

The seven rules of a great git commit message:

  • Separate subject from body with a blank line
  • Limit the subject line to 50 characters
  • Capitalize the subject line and do not end the subject line with a period
  • Use the present tense ("Add feature" not "Added feature")
  • Use the imperative mood in the subject line ("Move cursor to..." not "Moves cursor to...")
  • Wrap the body at 72 characters
  • Use the body to explain what and why vs. how

Keep in mind: This has all been said before.
