# Guidelines to create great commit messages


We use [GitCop](https://gitcop.com) to check that commit messages are
properly written. The rules are the following:

* The first line of a commit message, called the subject line should
not be more than 80 characters long.

* The commit message should end with the following trailers:

```
Licence: MIT
Signed-off-by: User Name <email@address>
```

where "User Name" is the author's real name and email@address one of
the author's valid email addresses.

These trailers mean that the author agrees with the following
document (which comes from http://developercertificate.org/):

[developer-certificate-of-origin](./developer-certificate-of-origin)

and with licensing the work under the MIT license available in the
following file:

[LICENSE](./LICENSE)
