---name: conventional-commitdescription: 'Prompt and workflow for generating conventional commit messages using a structured XML format. Guides users to create standardized, descriptive commit messages in line with the Conventional Commits specification, including instructions, examples, and validation.'--- ### Instructions ```xml	<description>This file contains a prompt template for generating conventional commit messages. It provides instructions, examples, and formatting guidelines to help users write standardized, descriptive commit messages in accordance with the Conventional Commits specification.</description>``` ### Workflow **Follow these steps:** 1. Run `git status` to review changed files.2. Run `git diff` or `git diff --cached` to inspect changes.3. Stage your changes with `git add <file>`.4. Construct your commit message using the following XML structure.5. After generating your commit message, Copilot will automatically run the following command in your integrated terminal (no confirmation needed): ```bashgit commit -m "type(scope): description"``` 6. Just execute this prompt and Copilot will handle the commit for you in the terminal. ### Commit Message Structure ```xml<commit-message>	<type>feat|fix|docs|style|refactor|perf|test|build|ci|chore|revert</type>	<scope>()</scope>	<description>A short, imperative summary of the change</description>	<body>(optional: more detailed explanation)</body>	<footer>(optional: e.g. BREAKING CHANGE: details, or issue references)</footer></commit-message>``` ### Examples ```xml<examples>	<example>feat(parser): add ability to parse arrays</example>	<example>fix(ui): correct button alignment</example>	<example>docs: update README with usage instructions</example>	<example>refactor: improve performance of data processing</example>	<example>chore: update dependencies</example>	<example>feat!: send email on registration (BREAKING CHANGE: email service required)</example></examples>``` ### Validation ```xml<validation>	<type>Must be one of the allowed types.
