I plan to use Sematic vesioning and we can use conventional commits to both automate this vesioning but also allow for commit messages that better explains the changes. I have been using them in all of my commits in this repo.

I go into detail about the reasoning behind commits, inspired by this blogpost https://dhwthompson.com/2019/my-favourite-git-commit.

My recent commit is an example of what I strive to do. 5e1b076bf9 This one isn't always possible but I would like people to think about using more detail in commits (without going over the first line char limit which is like 70~ chars)

Looks good, I will use the conventional commits style from now on and keep in mind that my commits could be used for a change log. We can document this in the README if other folks don't have issues with it.

Saw that we can run a CI check that'll lint the commit messages for format:

Looks good but I worry about the effects of doing that post commit and push where the history is now in a repo where it would be bad to force it to be correct
