# Conventional commit message examples > Conventional commit message examples from the [Angular](https://github.com/angular/angular/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#-commit-message-format) project. ## Commit message format ```plaintext ──────────────────────────────────────────── 100 chars ────────────────────────────────────────────┤ (): Fixes # ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ ``` ## Example commit messages ### Simple refactor ```plaintext ─── Example: Simple refactor ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ refactor(core): rename refreshDynamicEmbeddedViews to refreshEmbeddedViews Improve code readability. The original name no longer matches how the function is used. ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ ``` ### Simple docs change ```plaintext ─── Example: Simple docs change ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ docs: clarify the service limitation in providers.md guide Fixes #36332 ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ ``` ### A bug fix ```plaintext ─── Example: A bug fix ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ fix(ngcc): ensure lockfile is removed when `analyzeFn` fails Previously an error thrown in the `analyzeFn` would cause the ngcc process to exit immediately without removing the lockfile, and potentially before the unlocker process had been successfully spawned resulting in the lockfile being orphaned and left behind. Now we catch these errors and remove the lockfile as needed. ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ ``` ### Breaking change ```plaintext ─── Example: Breaking change ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ feat(bazel): simplify ng_package by dropping esm5 and fesm5 esm5 and fesm5 distributions are no longer needed and have been deprecated in the past. https://v9.angular.io/guide/deprecations#esm5-and-fesm5-code-formats-in-angular-npm-packages This commit modifies ng_package to no longer distribute these two formats in npm packages built by ng_package (e.g. @angular/core). This commit intentionally doesn't fully clean up the ng_package rule to remove all traces of esm5 and fems5 build artifacts as that is a bigger cleanup and currently we are narrowing down the scope of this change to the MVP needed for v10, which in this case is 'do not put esm5 and fesm5' into the npm packages. More cleanup to follow: https://angular-team.atlassian.net/browse/FW-2143 BREAKING CHANGE: esm5 and fesm5 format is no longer distributed in Angular's npm packages e.g. @angular/core Angular CLI will automatically downlevel the code to es5 if differential loading is enabled in the Angular project, so no action is required from Angular CLI users. If you are not using Angular CLI to build your application or library, and you need to be able to build es5 artifacts, then you will need to downlevel the distributed Angular code to es5 on your own.

The following is an excerpt of the specification with the most commonly needed info. Each commit message consists of a _header_, a _body_, and a _footer_. ```plaintext
