[master 58da0e1] feat(foo): my very short description
  • Running git log gives:

    feat(foo): my very short description
    
    BREAKING CHANGE: The breaking change itself
  • Notice that the My longer description for a breaking change provided to the prompt is not part of the git log

Expected Behaviour

  • Alternatively, we can remember to provide a longer description from the start:
$ git cz --allow-empty
cz-cli@4.1.2, cz-conventional-changelog@3.2.0

? Select the type of change that you're committing: feat:     A new feature
? What is the scope of this change (e.g. component or file name): (press enter to skip) bar
? Write a short, imperative tense description of the change (max 89 chars):
 (25) another short description
? Provide a longer description of the change: (press enter to skip)
 Now I directly provide a longer description
? Are there any breaking changes? Yes
? Describe the breaking changes:
 Here I describe why I broke things
? Does this change affect any open issues? No
