I came across the "tags" that the AngularJS uses, and have found these to be a lot more relevant to my projects. I agree with @mrcwinn that expecting other developers to understand the usage of some of these is asking too much (`:lipstick:` ??? ). https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/validate-commit-msg.js#L21-31 https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/validate-c... The format they enforce is here - https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/validate-commit-msg.js#L58 https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/validate-c... If done right then these tags can be invaluable when using tools like `git-bisect` - you can safely ignore the ones marked `docs` or `style` (assuming you are not working with a language like Python). Not to mention you can build automation around like, for e.g. automatically generating release notes.
