+Please, split changes into several and documented small commits: this will help us to perform a better review. Commits must follow the the Conventional Commits Specification, a lightweight convention on top of commit messages. It provides an easy set of rules for creating an explicit commit history; which makes it easier to write automated tools on top of. This convention dovetails with Semantic Versioning, by describing the features, fixes, and breaking changes made in commit messages. See [Conventional Commits Specification](https://www.conventionalcommits.org) to learn about Conventional Commits.
