## Commit Message Format

The commit message format is as follows:

```
tag(!): short description

Longer description here if necessary
```

The `tag` should be one of the following:

- `fix` - for a bug fix
- `update` - for an enhancement or update not qualifying as a feature
- `feature` - for a new feature
- `perf` - for a code change that improves performance
- `refactor` - for a code change that isn't one of `fix`, `update`, `feature` or `perf`
- `build` - for changes that affect the build system or external dependencies
- `test` - for adding or correcting tests
- `style` - for changes to the linter or formatter configuration and its results
- `docs` - for changes to documentation only
- `other` - for anything that isn't covered by the tags above

If a change is a breaking change then that should be indicated by adding a `!` after the tag.

These tags are an adapted version of the tags [eslint](https://eslint.org/docs/developer-guide/contributing/pull-requests#step-2-make-your-changes) and of the tags [Angular](https://github.com/angular/angular/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#type) use. \
This commit message format is also inspired by [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/).
