README
# Commit
Commit is an editor that helps you write better Git and Mercurial commit messages.
https://apps.gnome.org/Commit
## Installation
[Setup flatpak](https://flatpak.org/setup/) then
```sh
flatpak install re.sonny.Commit
flatpak run re.sonny.Commit # Follow instructions
```
## Tips and trick
### Emojis
right-click ➞ Insert Emoji or use the shortcut _Ctrl+._ 🎉️
The Emoji picker works in any GNOME app 👣️
### Open Commit in the center of the screen
On GNOME you can make all new windows open in the center using
```sh
gsettings set org.gnome.mutter center-new-windows true
```
See https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/246
or set and use the move-to-center keybinding
```sh
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings move-to-center "['Space']"
```
## Translation
If you'd like to help translating Commit into your language, please head over to [Weblate](https://hosted.weblate.org/engage/commit/).
Thank you for your help!
## Development
```sh
cd Commit
git submodule update --init --recursive
./src/local.js --readonly test/fixtures/with-body/COMMIT_EDITMSG
```
Make changes and hit `Ctrl+Shift+Q` on the Commit window to restart it.
To pass the tests you have to install a few dependencies
