## Commit Messages
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Commit messages should follow the [GNOME commit message
|
||
|
|
guidelines](https://wiki.gnome.org/Git/CommitMessages). We require an URL
|
||
|
|
to either an issue or a merge request in each commit. Try to always prefix
|
||
|
|
commit subjects with a relevant topic, such as `compositor:` or
|
||
|
|
`clutter/actor:`, and it's always better to write too much in the commit
|
||
|
|
message body than too little.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If a commit fixes an issue and that issue should be closed, add URL to it in
|
||
|
|
the bottom of the commit message and prefix with `Closes:`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Do not add any `Part-of:` line, as that will be handled automatically when
|
||
|
|
merging.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### The Fixes tag
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If a commit fixes a regression caused by a particular commit, it can be marked
|
||
|
|
with the `Fixes:` tag. To produce such a tag, use
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
git show -s --pretty='format:Fixes: %h (\"%s\")' <COMMIT>
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
or create an alias
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
git config --global alias.fixes "show -s --pretty='format:Fixes: %h (\"%s\")'"
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
and then use
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
git fixes <COMMIT>
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Example
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
compositor: Also consider dark matter when calculating paint volume
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Ignoring dark matter when calculating the paint volume missed the case where
|
||
|
|
compositing happens in complete vacuum.

||
|
|
|
