Semantic commit tool

sema - semantic commit tool

This is a simple command line tool inspired by this gist about semantic commit messages. In short, it proposed to use labelled commit messages that derive their format from Angular's commit rules.

The sema command will help you follow these guidelines with no effort on your part to memorise labels or double-check things.

Format

Each commit message is supposed to be formatted in the following way:

TYPE(SCOPE): MESSAGE

Where SCOPE tells you about the scope of changes, MESSAGE summarises those in a concise way, and TYPE is a short label from the following:

• Feat: new feature for the user
• Fix: bug fix for the user
• Docs: changes to the documentation
• Style: formatting with no production code change
• Refactor: refactoring production code
• Test: adding missing tests, refactoring tests
• Chore: updating grunt tasks

You can see the list of these labels with explanations using sema -help.
