Please write commit + messages in the format described at http://live.gnome.org/Git/CommitMessages + + Below is a copy of this format: + +=== begin example commit === +[tag] Short explanation of the commit + +Longer explanation explaining exactly what's changed, whether any +external or private interfaces changed, what bugs were fixed (with bug +tracker reference if applicable) and so forth. Be concise but not too brief. +=== end example commit === + + - The commit message is mainly for the other people, so they should be able + to understand it now and six months later. + + - Always add a brief description of the commit to the _first_ line of the + commit and terminate by two newlines (it will work without the second + newline, but that is not nice for the interfaces). + + - First line (the brief description) must only be one sentence and should + start with a capital letter unless it starts with a lowercase symbol or + identifier. Don't use a trailing period either. Don't exceed 72 characters. + + - You can prefix the first line with one tag, to make it easier to know to + which part of the module the commit applies. For example, a commit with + "[fish] Make it work with newer fortune" in the mate-panel module clearly + applies to the fish applet. + + - The main description (the body) is normal prose and should use normal + punctuation and capital letters where appropriate. Normally, for patches + sent to a mailing list it's copied from there. This main description can be + empty if the change is self-explanatory (eg: "Add DOAP file"). + + - When committing code on behalf of others use the --author option, e.g. git + commit -a --author "Joe Coder ". + + - When referring to a bug, you can use this form: bgo#12345. Use bgo for + bugzilla.gnome.org, but you can also reference bugs in other bug trackers: + rh means bugzilla.redhat.com, bnc means bugzilla.novell.com, lp means + launchpad.net, etc. + + - When a commit closes a bug, the commit message should contain a line like: + Closes: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12345 -- cgit v1.2.1
