Fabric8-planner follows the guidelines listed in the link:https://uxd.fabric8.io/code-guidelines/ [HTML/CSS Code Guidelines], ensure that you use the same guidelines while contributing to the repository.
In fabric8-planner we use the semantic-release plugin. That means that all you have to do is use the AngularJS Commit Message Conventions (documented below). Once the PR is merged, a new release will be automatically published to npmjs.com and a release tag created on github. The version will be updated following semantic versionning rules.
A commit message consists of a header, body and footer. The header has a type, scope and subject:
<type>(<scope>): <subject> <BLANK LINE> <body> <BLANK LINE> <footer>
The header is mandatory and the scope of the header is optional.
Any line of the commit message cannot be longer 100 characters! This allows the message to be easier to read on GitHub as well as in various git tools.
If the commit reverts a previous commit, it should begin with revert:
,
followed by the header of the reverted commit. In the body it should
say: This reverts commit <hash>.
, where the hash is the SHA of the
commit being reverted.
If the prefix is feat
, fix
or perf
, it will always appear in the
changelog.
Other prefixes are up to your discretion. Suggested prefixes are docs
,
chore
, style
, refactor
, and test
for non-changelog related
tasks.
The scope could be anything specifying place of the commit change. For
example $location
, $browser
, $compile
, $rootScope
, ngHref
,
ngClick
, ngView
, etc…
The subject contains succinct description of the change:
-
use the imperative, present tense:
change'' not
changed'' nor ``changes'' -
don’t capitalize first letter
-
no dot (.) at the end
Just as in the subject, use the imperative, present tense: change''
not
changed'' nor ``changes''. The body should include the motivation
for the change and contrast this with previous behavior.
The footer should contain any information about Breaking Changes and is also the place to reference GitHub issues that this commit Closes.
Breaking Changes should start with the word BREAKING CHANGE:
with a
space or two newlines. The rest of the commit message is then used for
this.
A detailed explanation can be found in this document.
