About

GitEmoji is a guide to standardize and explain how to use emojis on GitHub commit messages.

Using emojis on commit messages provides an easy way of identifying the purpose or intention of a commit with only looking at the emojis used. As there are a lot of different emojis but also a lot of emojis guides, we found the need of creating a guide in our way that can help to use emojis easier.

Example of usage

In case you want integrate emojis in your project, here's an example of a practical way to use it :

<message> :shortcode:

• message: Brief commit message explaining your changes.
• shortcode: String that will add the emoji chosen next to your message.
