Conventional Commits & Branch Naming
Follow Conventional Commits v1.0.0 for both branch names and commit messages — consistent naming lets tools auto-generate changelogs, enforce SemVer bumps, and filter history by concern.
Branch Naming
Format:
/[issue-]
— lowercase, hyphens only, no special chars except
/
.
feat/user-authentication
feat/42-user-authentication
fix/login-race-condition
fix/87-login-race-condition
docs/api-reference-update
refactor/payment-module
Prefix with the issue number when one exists — GitHub and GitLab auto-link it and it makes
git log
immediately traceable to the tracker. Keep the description under 50 characters — most git UIs truncate branch names in lists around that length. Match the type to the work you're doing — this is the contract readers use to understand the branch purpose at a glance.
