My/Pref/Dev/Tool/SCM/Commit Message Style Preferences

• 1 - use Conventional Commits as a standard for the commit messages (https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/)
  • Recommendation: download the conventional commits specification and put it at docs/dev/scm/convention_commits.md
• 2 - commit style - use gitmoji (https://gitmoji.dev/) to communicate what's happening at this point in the project
• 3 - the last line(s) of the commit should (each) be referencs to the ID and Name of the task being worked on with respect to the task storage system of record
  • JIRA example
    • AB-1234 The Jira Ticket Title
  • GitHub/Issue example
    • #123 The GitHub Issue Title
  • Local filesystem task, e.g. for use with Person/Brian Madison/GitHub/BMAD-METHOD
    • docs/stories/1.1.story.title
  • Note: Ticket references are optional for repositories that don't use ticket tracking systems
• 4 - For extended guidelines on commit conventions, see Conventional Emoji Commits which combines conventional commits with emoji
