··· 33 33 knotserver: git/service: improve error checking in upload-pack 34 34 ``` 35 35 36 - The affected package/directory can be truncated down to just the relevant dir 37 - should it be far too long. For example `pages/templates/repo/fragments` can 38 - simply be `repo/fragments`. 39 36 40 37 ### general notes 41 38 ··· 43 40 using `git am`. At present, there is no squashing -- so please author 44 41 your commits as they would appear on `master`, following the above 45 42 guidelines. 43 + - If there is a lot of nesting, for example "appview: 44 + pages/templates/repo/fragments: ...", these can be truncated down to 45 + just "appview: repo/fragments: ...". If the change affects a lot of 46 + subdirectories, you may abbreviate to just the top-level names, e.g. 47 + "appview: ..." or "knotserver: ...". 48 + - Keep commits lowercased with no trailing period. 46 49 - Use the imperative mood in the summary line (e.g., "fix bug" not 47 50 "fixed bug" or "fixes bug"). 48 51 - Try to keep the summary line under 72 characters, but we aren't too 49 52 fussed about this. 53 + - Follow the same formatting for PR titles if filled manually. 50 54 - Don't include unrelated changes in the same commit. 51 55 - Avoid noisy commit messages like "wip" or "final fix"—rewrite history 52 56 before submitting if necessary.
