@dgc-org/commitlint-config-conventional-changelog-for-jira

Shareable commitlint config enforcing the Angular commit convention and Jira Smart Commit Syntax. Based on @commitlint/config-angular.

Use with @dgc-org/cz-conventional-changelog-for-jira, @commitlint/cli.

Getting started

npm install --save-dev @dgc-org/commitlint-config-conventional-changelog-for-jira @commitlint/cli
echo "module.exports = {extends: ['@dgc-org/commitlint-config-conventional-changelog-for-jira']};" > commitlint.config.js

Disabling commitlint

In some cases it might be useful to be able to skip linting, e.g. when lacking access to Jira or having to do nasty things in GitOps. This configuration skips the linting process altogether if either of these conditions are satisfied:

• Commit message starts with WIP:, e.g. WIP: the office is burning down, need to save my work
• Environment variable COMMITLINT_DISABLE is set to true (case-insensitive) or 1

This mechanism should only be used in situations where there's no alternative to it, rather than to ignore fixable validation failures.
