I’ve talked a lot recently with colleagues and peers about writing git commit messages (particularly in the wake of Hacktoberfest, but also following this recent post: One to read: “My favourite Git commit”), but this is a useful document that lists the standards to follow, no matter where your commits are going!

I try to follow these guides (heading no more than 50 characters, body containing the changes that occurred and why) but I don’t always succeed. But, it’s a goal to aim for!
