Having a standardized commit message format can greatly streamline the version control and collaboration process.
Here's a suggested commit message format that you can take as a guideline:
Commit Message Format:
<directory>: <brief description>
[optional body]
[optional footer]
Here's a breakdown of each part:
-
<directory>: The directory or module name where the changes are made. For example,algorithms,backend-dev,css, etc. This helps in quickly identifying the scope of the changes. -
<brief description>: A concise summary of the changes made in the commit. It should provide enough information to understand the purpose or nature of the changes. -
[optional body]: An optional section where you can provide more details about the changes. This can include any additional context, explanations, or notable points related to the commit. -
[optional footer]: Another optional section where you can include any relevant information such as references to issues, pull requests, or other related commits.
Here's an example of a commit message using this format:
algorithms: Add binary search implementation
- Implemented binary search algorithm in Python
- Included an example usage in the README
Closes #25Using this format consistently across your commits will make it easier for collaborators to understand the changes made and track the progress of the project.
