The reasons for these conventions are as follows:
|
|
|
|
* simple navigation though git history
|
|
* easier to read git history
|
|
|
|
## Commit Message Format
|
|
|
|
Each commit message consists of a __header__, a __body__, and a __footer__.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
<header>
|
|
<BLANK LINE>
|
|
<body>
|
|
<BLANK LINE>
|
|
<footer>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `header` is mandatory and must conform to the [Commit Message Header](#commit-message-header) format. The header
|
|
cannot be longer than 72 characters.
|
|
|
|
The `body` is mandatory for all commits except for those of type "docs". When the body is present it must be at least 20
|
|
characters long and must conform to the [Commit Message Body](#commit-message-body) format.
|
|
|
|
The `footer` is optional. The [Commit Message Footer](#commit-message-footer) format describes what the footer is used
|
|
for, and the structure it must have.
|
|
|
|
### Commit Message Header
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
<type>(<scope>): <summary>
|
|
│ │ │
|
|
│ │ └─⫸ Summary in present tense. Not capitalized. No period at the end.
|
|
│ │
|
|
│ └─⫸ Commit Scope: api|authentication|authorization|cmd|commands|configuration|duo|
|
|
│ handlers|logging|middlewares|mocks|model|notification|ntp|oidc|
|
|
│ regulation|server|session|storage|suites|templates|utils|web
|
|
│
|
|
└─⫸ Commit Type: build|ci|docs|feat|fix|perf|refactor|release|test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `<type>` and `<summary>` fields are mandatory, the `(<scope>)` field is optional.
|
|
|
|
#### Allowed type values:
|
|
|
|
* __build__ Changes that affect the build system or external dependencies
|
|
(example scopes: bundler, deps, docker, go, npm)
|
|
* __ci__ Changes to our CI configuration files and scripts
|
|
(example scopes: autheliabot, buildkite, codecov, golangci-lint, renovate, reviewdog)
|
|
* __docs__ Documentation only changes
|
|
* __feat__ A new feature
|
|
* __fix__ A bug fix
|
|
* __perf__ A code change that improves performance
|
|
* __refactor__ A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
|
|
* __release__ Releasing a new version of Authelia
|
|
* __test__ Adding missing tests or correcting existing tests
|
|
|
|
#### Allowed scope values:
|
|
|
|
The scope should be the name of the package affected (as perceived by the person reading the changelog generated from
|
|
commit messages).
|
|
|
|
* authentication
|
|
* authorization
|
|
* commands
|
|
* configuration
|
|
* duo
|
|
* handlers
|
|
* logging
|
|
* metrics
|
|
* middlewares
|
|
* mocks
|
|
* model
|
|
* notification
|
|
* ntp
|
|
* oidc
|
|
* regulation
|
|
* server
|
|
* session
|
|
* storage
|
|
* suites
|
|
* templates
|
|
* totp
|
|
* utils
|
|
|
|
There are currently a few exceptions to the "use package name" rule:
|
|
|
|
* `api`: used for changes that change the openapi specification
|
|
* `cmd`: used for changes to the `authelia|authelia-scripts|authelia-suites` top level binaries
|
|
* `web`: used for changes to the React based frontend
|
|
* none/empty string: useful for `test`, `refactor` and changes that are done across multiple packages
|
|
(e.g. `test: add missing unit tests`) and for docs changes that are not related to a specific package
|
|
(e.g. `docs: fix typo in tutorial`).
|
|
|
|
#### Summary
|
|
|
|
Use the summary field to provide a succinct description of the change:
|
|
|
|
* use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes"
|
|
* don't capitalize the first letter
|
|
* no dot (.) at the end
|
|
|
|
### Commit Message Body
|
|
|
|
Just as in the summary, use the imperative, present tense: "fix" not "fixed" nor "fixes".
|
|
|
|
Explain the motivation for the change in the commit message body. This commit message should explain *why* you are
|
|
making the change. You can include a comparison of the previous behavior with the new behavior in order to illustrate
|
|
the impact of the change.
|
|
|
|
### Commit Message Footer
|
|
|
|
The footer can contain information about breaking changes and is also the place to reference GitHub issues and other PRs
|
|
that this commit closes or is related to.
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
BREAKING CHANGE: <breaking change summary>
|
|
<BLANK LINE>
|
|
<breaking change description + migration instructions>
|
|
<BLANK LINE>
|
|
<BLANK LINE>
|
|
Fixes #<issue number>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Breaking Change section should start with the phrase "BREAKING CHANGE: " followed by a summary of the breaking change, a
|
|
blank line, and a detailed description of the breaking change that also includes migration instructions.
|
|
|
|
### Revert Commits
|
|
|
|
If the commit reverts a previous commit, it should begin with `revert:`, followed by the header of the reverted commit.
|
|
|
|
The content of the commit message body should contain:
|
|
|
|
* information about the SHA of the commit being reverted in the following format: `This reverts commit <SHA>`,
|
|
* a clear description of the reason for reverting the commit message.
|
|
|
|
## Commit Message Examples
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
fix(logging): disabled colored logging outputs when file is specified
|
|
|
|
In some scenarios if a user has a log_file_path specified and a TTY seems to be detected this causes terminal coloring outputs to be written to the file.
|
|
This in turn will cause issues when attempting to utilise the log with the provided fail2ban regexes.
|
|
|
|
We now override any TTY detection/logging treatments and disable coloring/removal of the timestamp when a user is utilising the text based logger to a file.
|
|
|
|
Fixes #1480.
