Commit Style¶

A sample good commit is:

fileName: Thing I did
Some subHeading things

So this change was to do that thing I thought was good. Also there was this
other person who thought so too, so then I ate a sandwich and we got the code
done. I am writing this but really, honestly, two people did this.

As is evident, the commit should clearly have:

• The name of the file, or the topic or the subject you have changed or the namespace or the functionality you have added something:
• A line describing something:
• An (optional) subheading with more details
• An (optional) paragraph or essay on why the change was done and anything else you want to share with the devs.
• Co-authorship IS MANDATORY if applicable. Even if you just had a sandwich with the other person. It won't kill you to share, or to write that.
