Git Commit

Use conventional commits for consistent, parseable history. Follow atomic commit principles.

Principles

Commits

  • Atomic commits - Each commit is one logical change that can be reverted independently
  • Conventional format - Use type(scope): summary for consistent, parseable history
  • Imperative mood - "Add feature" not "Added feature" or "Adds feature"
  • Explain why in body - Summary says what; body explains why and notes tradeoffs

Commit Format

type(scope)!: short summary

Optional body explaining what and why, not how.
Wrap lines at ~72 characters.

Footer with references and metadata.

Types

Type Use For
feat New feature or capability
fix Bug fix
perf Performance improvement
refactor Code change that neither fixes nor adds
docs Documentation only
style Formatting, whitespace (no code change)
test Adding or updating tests
build Build system or dependencies
ci CI/CD configuration
chore Maintenance tasks
revert Reverting previous commit

Scopes

Use folder, package, or domain: api, app, db, data, infra, deps, tests, docs, security, ui, pipeline, auth, users

Examples

# Feature
git commit -m "feat(api): add user export endpoint"

# Bug fix with issue reference
git commit -m "fix(auth): prevent nil pointer on login

The session lookup was not checking for missing tokens
before dereferencing.

Closes #234"

# Breaking change (note the !)
git commit -m "feat(api)!: require API key for all endpoints

BREAKING CHANGE: All API requests now require authentication.
Unauthenticated requests return 401."

# With co-author
git commit -m "feat(ui): add dark mode toggle
