doc: describe acceptable commit messages
This commit is contained in:
commit
8435eae7bb
@ -500,10 +500,22 @@ made. For example, a change in :file:`bgpd/rfapi` would be formatted as::
|
||||
The first line should be no longer than 50 characters. Subsequent lines should
|
||||
be wrapped to 72 characters.
|
||||
|
||||
The purpose of commit messages is to briefly summarize what the commit is
|
||||
changing. Therefore, the extended summary portion should be in the form of an
|
||||
English paragraph. Brief examples of program output are acceptable but if
|
||||
present should be short (on the order of 10 lines) and clearly demonstrate what
|
||||
has changed. The goal should be that someone with only passing familiarity with
|
||||
the code in question can understand what is being changed.
|
||||
|
||||
Commit messages consisting entirely of program output are *unacceptable*. These
|
||||
do not describe the behavior changed. For example, putting VTYSH output or the
|
||||
result of test runs as the sole content of commit messages is unacceptable.
|
||||

||||
