Upgrade Guides

validate-commit-msg

The maintainers of validate-commit-msg have deprecated their package in favor of commitlint.

Migrating with default settings

The most common validate-commit-msg use cases can be recreated with minor changes to your setup.

Replace validate-commit-msg with commitlint

npm remove validate-commit-msg --save-dev
npm install --save-dev @commitlint/cli @commitlint/config-conventional

Add a commitmsg run-script to package.json

{
  "scripts": {
    "commitmsg": "commitlint -x @commitlint/config-conventional -E GIT_PARAMS"
  }
}

Install husky

npm install --save-dev husky

Migrating with custom settings

If you used validate-commit-msg with custom configuration you might want to customize commitlint configuration, too.

Replace validate-commit-msg with commitlint

npm remove validate-commit-msg --save-dev
npm install --save-dev @commitlint/cli @commitlint/config-conventional

Add a commitmsg run-script to package.json

{
  "scripts": {
    "commitmsg": "commitlint -E GIT_PARAMS"
  }
}

Install husky

npm install --save-dev husky

Configure commitlint

module.exports = {
  extends: ['@commitlint/config-conventional'],
  rules: {
    // Place your rules here
    'scope-enum': [2, 'always', ['a', 'b']], // error if scope is given but not in provided list
  },
};

validate-commit-msg option equivalents

{
  "types": ["a", "b"],              // 'type-enum': [2, 'always', ['a', 'b']]
  "scope": {
    "required": true,               // 'scope-empty': [2, 'never']
    "allowed": ["a", "b"],          // 'scope-enum': [2, 'always', ['a', 'b']]; specify [0] for allowed: ["*"]
    "validate": false,              // 'scope-enum': [0], 'scope-empty': [0]
    "multiple": false               //  multiple scopes are not supported in commitlint
  },
  "warnOnFail": false,              // no equivalent setting in commitlint
  "maxSubjectLength": 100,          // 'header-max-length': [2, 'always', 100]
  "subjectPattern": ".+",           // may be configured via `parser-preset`, contact us
  "subjectPatternErrorMsg": "msg",  // no equivalent setting in commitlint
  "helpMessage": "",                // no equivalent setting in commitlint
  "autoFix": false                  // no equivalent setting in commitlint
}

Refer to the Rules Reference for a list of all available configuration options.

There is also the #commitlint channel on the DevTools Slack workspace. Join us there and we'll do our best to help you with your migration.
