Add Git Lint - Githubissues

bkuhlmann commented 1 year ago

Overview

Heya. :wave: Would it be OK to add Git Lint to this project? Having a coding buddy as part of the team will allow us to communicate effectively but also document the design and architecture of this project better. To provide a bit more background, these articles might be of interest:

Git Rebase: Git Lint will help enforce a clean rebase history.
Git Commit Anatomy: This is mentioned in the above article but wanted to call attention to how to leverage the power of a good commit message.

If approved, this would require upgrading to Ruby 3.1.x (can open a separate issue for tackling the Ruby upgrade if that'd be better) but would allow us to use Git Lint both locally and on CI. The wiring within GitHub Actions would take very little effort. :rocket:

I have overcommit in place, do you think Git Lint is worth adding as well?

bkuhlmann commented 6 months ago

Well, you'd want one or the other but not both since there is overlap. Git Lint is more powerful than Overcommit but, hey, I'm biased. 😅

If you're a heavy Overcommit user, I'd probably stick with it. I use Git Lint for everything so wanted to ask. Feel free to close this if you don't want to pursue this, though.
