Semantic Commit messages
To detect if your repository uses semantic commits, Renovate looks at the latest 10 commit messages in the base branch. It then uses conventional-commits-detector to determine what convention the commit messages follow.
Renovate only detects Angular-style conventional commits, it ignores all other commit conventions.
When Renovate finds Angular-style commits, Renovate will create commit messages and PR titles that look like this:
- chore(deps): update eslint to v4.2.0
- fix(deps): update express to v4.16.2
Renovate uses chore by default, but uses fix for updates to your production dependencies in your package.json file.
Manually enabling or disabling semantic commits
You can override the default settings, and disable or enable semantic commits.
If you want Renovate to use semantic commits: add ":semanticCommits" to your extends array.
If you want Renovate to stop using semantic commits, add ":semanticCommitsDisabled" to your extends array.
Changing the Semantic Commit type
You can change the Semantic Commit type that Renovate uses.
Say you want Renovate to use "chore" for every PR, you can add ":semanticCommitTypeAll(chore)" to your extends array.
PR titles and commit messages start with "chore(deps):"
Or say you want to use "ci" for every PR, then you would add ":semanticCommitTypeAll(ci)" to your extends array instead.
PR titles and commit messages start with "ci(deps):"
Changing the Semantic Commit scope
If you don't like the default "deps" scope, you can use another word for the scope instead.
For example, to set the scope to "package" instead, add the preset ":semanticCommitScope(package)" to your extends array.
If you want to remove the semantic commit scope (e.g. use prefix chore: instead of chore(deps):), then add the preset ":semanticCommitScopeDisabled" to your extends array.
