Hi Imani, thanks for your post! Didn't know there was a spec about git commits and it's very interesting! It really makes sense since we tend to be "conservative" about explaining commits usually.

In addition you might want to setup a template (basically put the template you explained up there in a template file :D) for your Git commit messages, so that it can help you and the people you collaborate with, with something like:

git config --global commit.template ~/.git-commit-template
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

I've used GiT for over a decade and did not know about this. TYVM @rhymes and @Imani.
