    135 WIP
     135There are a number of conventions to writing Git commit messages. For a detailed explanation, see http://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/. As a tl;dr, here are seven short rules:
     136
     137 1. Separate subject from body with a blank line
     138 1. Limit the subject line to 50 characters
     139 1. Capitalize the subject line
     140 1. Do not end the subject line with a period
     141 1. Use the imperative mood in the subject line
     142 1. Wrap the body at 72 characters
     143 1. Use the body to explain what and why vs. how
