When you contribute code to the PrestaShop project (through Github), we ask that you strictly use the PrestaShop way of writing a commit/PR message. This way, when building the code history, your commit message will fit nicely with the ones from the PrestaShop developers.

Commit messages The commit/PR title must be in English, and have to be formatted like this:

Code Block
[type] category : description

You can put more details in the commit description.

Type

The type is the general idea behind your commit: are you fixing a bug, making an improvement, etc.?

...

Use the description to explain what your commit does in a few words. Try to be concise!

If you fixed a bugticket from the Forge, please specify the bug's Forge number in the description (eg: #PSCFV-007).
