I stumbled on this not long ago and I'll share here as I learned from it. Based on Angular's convention for commit messages. Here's the link

Basically like this:

<type>[optional scope]: <description>

[optional body]

[optional footer]

I've taken that knowledge and adapted it into what I do. The <type> part I am flexible with.

Sounds like a good convention! I'll look into the link later today, thanks!

I've seen similar. I've used the karma git template which is this. This link has more detail though while I'll use to train with in the future. Thanks!
