This is a rough outline of what a contributor's workflow looks like:
Thanks for your contributions!
We follow a rough convention for commit messages that is designed to answer two questions: what changed and why. The subject line should feature the what and the body of the commit should describe the why.
scripts: add the test-cluster command
this uses tmux to setup a test cluster that you can easily kill and
start for debugging.
Fixes #38
The format can be described more formally as follows:
<subsystem>: <what changed>
<BLANK LINE>
<why this change was made>
<BLANK LINE>
<footer>
The first line is the subject and should be no longer than 70 characters, the second line is always blank, and other lines should be wrapped at 80 characters. This allows the message to be easier to read on GitHub as well as in various git tools.
