Hello, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request simplifies the .github/pull_request_template.md by removing the extensive 'Type of Change' section.

  • Reduced Noise: The removal aims to reduce unnecessary noise and boilerplate in pull request descriptions, streamlining the PR creation process.
Changelog
  • .github/pull_request_template.md
    • Removed the 'Type of Change' section, which included a list of conventional commit prefixes.
Activity

Code Review

This pull request removes the 'Type of Change' checklist from the PR template. While the specific comment addresses the obsolescence of a related item in the 'Submitter Checklist', it also emphasizes the importance of retaining guidance for conventional commit types like fix: in the template, as per repository rules. The suggestion is to modify the checklist item rather than simply deleting it, to ensure fix: remains explicitly included.

Note: Security Review has been skipped due to the limited scope of the PR.

.github/pull_request_template.md (12-28)

medium

The 'Type of Change' section is being removed. However, the pull request template should still include guidance for conventional commit types like fix:, as it is a standard type. The current checklist item - [ ] ✨ I have ensured my commit message prefix (e.g., fix:, feat:) matches the "Type of Change" I selected above. refers to the removed section. Instead of removing this line entirely, consider modifying it to refer to a new section that explains conventional commit types, or rephrase it to stand alone, ensuring fix: is still explicitly mentioned as a standard type for commit messages.
