## Scope
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Each PR should represent a single logical change. If you find yourself writing "and" in the title, consider splitting it into separate PRs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
| Good scope | Too broad |
|
||
|
|
|---|---|
|
||
|
|
| Add receipt parser Lambda | Add receipt parser and refactor auth middleware |
|
||
|
|
| Fix timeout in payment processor | Fix timeout and update dependencies |
|
||
|
|
| Update Lambda runtime to Python 3.12 | Update runtime and add new endpoint |
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Title
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Keep it under 70 characters
|
||
|
|
- Use imperative mood, same as commit messages
|
||
|
|
- Describe the change, not the ticket
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
| Good | Bad |
|
||
|
|
|---|---|
|
||
|
|
| Add retry logic for transient upstream failures | JIRA-123 |
|
||
|
|
| Fix null check in auth handler | Bug fix |
|
||
|
|
| Update Lambda runtime to Python 3.12 | Updates |
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Description
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Use a structured format:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```markdown
|
||
|
|
## Summary
|
||
|
|
Brief explanation of what this PR does and why.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Changes
|
||
|
|
- Bullet list of specific changes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Test Plan
|
||
|
|
- How you verified this works
|
||
|
|
- What to check during review
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The summary should explain **why** the change is needed, not just restate the diff. Reviewers can read the code; they need context.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## When to Open a PR
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Before deploying to production (see [deploy-then-merge](git-workflow.md) workflow)
|
||
|
|
- When the work is ready for review, not as a draft for parking incomplete work
|
||
|
|
- After verifying locally that the change works as expected
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Merging
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Squash merge for feature branches with messy interim commits
|
||
|
|
- Regular merge for branches with clean, meaningful commit history
|
||
|
|
- Delete the branch after merge
