Commit Message
## Commit Message Format:
[fixes #<ticket number from pivotal tracker>] Subject
Detailed description
- item one
- item two
rb: Who did the code review for this commit
qa: notes to qa on how to test, good notes here make all the difference
## Commit Message Example:
[fixes #3] Capitalized, short (50 chars or less) summary
More detailed explanatory text, if necessary. In some contexts, the first line is treated as the subject of an email and the rest of the text as the body. The blank line separating the summary from the body is critical. You can write your body to have multiple paragraphs and lists.
Further paragraphs come after blank lines.
- Bullet points are okay, too
- Write your commit message in the present tense: "Fixes bug" and not "Fixed bug."
rb: Frodo Baggins
qa: Notes to qa, this can also include multiple paragraphs and lists
