How to Commit Multiline Messages in git commit
There are some easy ways to do this, it all depends on your personal preference
As developers, when using Git to commit code to a remote repository, we need to write information about this modification. On the command line, we use the git commit
command, such as git commit -m
which allows you to add a line of information. But sometimes a multi-line message with a title and a specific description may be more indicative of your intent, such as the following:
Commit Title: Briefly describe what I changed
Commit Description: Detailed instructions for changing it
So how to achieve this?
1. Use a text editor
Use git commit
without the -m
or git commit -v
, which will take you to a text editor. So then you can add multiple lines of text using your favorite text editor.
