We have very precise rules over how our git commit messages can be formatted. This leads to more readable messages that are easy to follow when looking through the project history. But also, we use the git commit messages to generate the AngularJS change log.
Each commit message consists of a header, a body and a footer. The header has a special format that includes a type, a scope and a subject:

| ### What is git ? | |
| First of all, [GitHub](https://hackernoon.com/tagged/github) is _not_ git. Many people understandably confuse the two. [GitHub](https://github.com/) is a website for hosting projects that _use_ git. | |

| It’s useful for coordinating work among multiple people on a project, and for tracking progress over time by saving “checkpoints”. You could use it while writing an essay, or to track changes to artwork and design files. |
