# Git Commit Message Guidelines When creating a commit message, please follow these guidelines to ensure clarity and consistency across the project: 1. **Structure of Commit Message**: - The commit message should consist of a header, a body (optional), and a footer (optional). - The header should be a single line that summarizes the changes made. - If necessary, the body can provide additional context or details about the changes. - The footer can include references to issues or breaking changes.
