Fit Commit

A Git hook to validate your commit messages, based largely on Tim Pope’s authoritative guide.

Example

``` $ git commit Adding a cool feature foobar foobar foobar, foobar foobar foobar foobar foobar foobar foobar foobar foobar foobar foobar

1: Error: Message must use present imperative tense. 2: Error: Second line must be blank. 3: Error: Lines should be <= 72 chars. (76)

Force commit? [y/n] ▊ ```

Install the gem:

$ gem install fit-commit

Install the hook in your Git repo:

$ fit-commit install

This creates a .git/hooks/commit-msg script which will automatically check your Git commit messages.

Line Length: All lines must be <= 72 chars (URLs excluded). First line should be <= 50 chars. Second line must be blank.
Tense: Message must use present imperative tense.
Summary Period: Do not end your summary with a period.
WIP: Do not commit WIPs to master.
Frat House: No frat house commit messages in master.
