Change of config file for v4?

[browniebroke]

I received a bunch of PRs on my repos for the newly released v4 and they mostly fail the build. Looking at the recent changes, it looks like the config file should be rename from commitlint.config.js → commitlint.config.cjs, is that correct?

If so, I guess the configFile option should be updated accordingly, both its default value and in the README.

Am I missing something? Don't think there is a good way to keep the same file name by looking at commitlint.js docs.

Hey @browniebroke! Yes you're right, sorry for not updating this as part of the breaking changes of v4. I'll Update the default value and the recommended value on README.

Yeah, renaming seems to be the only option :/

I've just merged this PR updating README and default config files: #195
Also updated the CHANGELOG of v4 to include this breaking change.

But I won't close this issue yet as I think this is breaking change is too big. I'll update the project to transpile the code, so I won't need to rely on Node.js default resolution logic anymore and we can switch back to allow .js extension like commitlint does.

Done! Fixed on v4.0.3
