git-tidy 1.3.0

Tidy git commit messages, linting, and logging

git-tidy

git-tidy is a set of git extensions for:

1. Keeping your git logs tidy with ease. git tidy-commit guides users through a structured commit with a configurable schema. git tidy-squash squashes messy commits into one tidy commit.
2. Linting a commit log. git tidy-lint verifies that commits match the schema. If a user uses git tidy-commit, commits will always validate.
3. Rendering a commit log. git tidy-log can render commits from any range and can render structured commits from a configurable Jinja template. Want to automatically generate release notes? git tidy-log can be configured to group and render commits based on the schema.
