commitplease | Validates strings as commit messages

Commitplease can be installed locally or globally (or both):.
Commit as usual. Git will trigger commitplease to check your commit message for errors. Invalid messages will prevent the commit, with details about what went wrong and a copy of the input.
Navigate to your repository and run the global commitplease executable. By default, it will check all the commit messages. Other examples include (just anything you can pass to git log really):. Here you can read more about git commit ranges.
You can configure commitplease from package.json of your project. Here are the options common for all style guidelines:.
limits.firstLine and limits.otherLine are the hard limits for the number of symbols on the first line and on other lines of the commit message, respectively.
"nohook": false tells commitplease to install its commit-msg hook. Setting "nohook": true makes commitplease skip installing the hook or skip running the hook if it has already been installed. This can be used when wrapping the commitplease validation API into another module, like a grunt plugin or husky. This setting does not affect the global commitplease executable, only repo-local.
markerPattern: A (intentionally loose) RegExp that indicates that the line might be a ticket reference. Case insensitive.
actionPattern: A RegExp that makes a line marked by markerPattern valid even if the line does not fit ticketPattern
ticketPattern: A RegExp that detects ticket references: Closes gh-1, Fixes gh-42, WEB-451 and similar.
