Based on Chris Beams seven Rules of a great Git commit message.
- Separate subject from body with a blank line.
- Limit the subject line to 50 characters.
- Do not end the subject line with a period.
- Use the imperative mood in the subject line.
- Wrap the body at 72 characters.
- Use the body to explain what and why vs. how.
