What does build
mean in the title? Isn't this part of the glutin
runtime crate?
@MarijnS95: Ah, that's a convention from certain communities that use Conventional Commits; this cheat sheet describes well how I've seen it used, which is:
Changes that affect the build system or external dependencies (example scopes: gulp, broccoli, npm)
I can alter or remove the prefix if you want. Just LMK!
I've never liked "conventional commits" for e.g. this reason. What does "build" have to do with "external dependencies"?
I mean, Rust developers in particular quite literally cargo build
dependencies into a binary. It doesn't sound conceptually distant to me, but I understand if you prefer a different prefix (or a system of authoring history outside of Conventional Commits).
My offer to change the commit message still stands.
Generally, the title prefix should reflect the subsystem, in this case it was primary wgl.
