    you may want to consider the new format → https://rdkcentral.github.io/rdk-halif-aidl/0.8.1/whitepapers/standardizing_git_commit_messages/


    To reduce your workload on commit messages..

    Summary: (is the first line of the commit message ,no title required)

    Owner: Already part of the git repo CODEOWNERS, and also git blame has the info

    Type: Should be part of the description for changelog, therefore needs to be in your title

    Test Plan: Is related to a branch not a single commit

    Dependences: Is related to your module and your versioning of the component

    Jira: should be in your ticket not your code commit.
