Something useful to add to your available type is chore. Such as deleting or renaming a file. Or changing a config like .gitignore which relates more to the repo itself than your application's build flow.

I started using build for only build-related configs - like a package.json or lint config file.

I actually had already been using chore, but forgot to add it here! The article's been updated to include it. Thanks for mentioning it!

You're welcome.

I'd appreciate if you have a look at my extension which doesn't let you choose a semantic message, it writes one for you.
