azure-sdk-for-rust git-commit.instructions.md

A set of rules for writing Git commit messages in the Azure SDK for Rust repository. A commit message briefly records why a change was made and what it includes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when preparing commits in that repository, especially when summarizing several changed files, explaining the reason for a fix, or linking an issue.
Why use it?
It keeps commit history consistent and makes changes easier to understand, while limiting titles to 50 characters and allowing a fuller description below.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

azure-sdk-for-rust git-commit.instructions.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Instructions for Git Commits

  • Git commits should follow the standard form:

    title of no more than 50 characters
    
    multi-line descriptions
    
  • Summarize changes for a title of no more than 50 characters ideally, with a hard stop at 80 characters.

  • Descriptions can be multiple lines or even paragraphs.

  • Descriptions may contain markdown.

  • Descriptions should not repeat a lot of content already found in the changed files.

  • Summarize changes for each file if no more than 10 files are changed.

  • If multiple files contain the same changes, group them together when summarizing changes.

  • Try to reason why changes were made and not about what was changed.

  • If any added comments in changed files reference fixing an issue like "Fixes #1234" include that same text in the description.

  • If the branch name includes an issue number like "issue1234" include "Fixes #1234" in the description.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
