Commit messages

Some people like to add emojis to commit messages that are semvar commits messages.

There are some conventions around which emoji to use.

You can also use command line tools help you and even VS Code extensions.

You can also just insert GitHub emojis in your markdown or static site

Git emojis in GitHub markdown

Git supports emojis in markdown. These are down with a keyword between colons, similar to Slack.

e.g.

• Bowtie
  • Rendered: :bowtie:
  • Markdown code:

      :bowtie:

Git emoji plugins for your website

While the Git emojis with format :name: and covered above render fine on plain GitHub markdown, some tools need a plugin to render emojis.

Docsify plugins:

• Emoji

Jekyll plugins:

• jekyll/jemoji
  • Available on rubygems.
  • Supported on GitHub Pages.
• emoji-for-jekyll
  • Not on GitHub Pages supported list.
