The first line is a succinct description of the change:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes"
|
||||||
|
- don't capitalize first letter
|
||||||
|
- no dot (.) at the end
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The `[area]` in the first line can be `http2`, `cookies`, `openssl` or
|
||||||
|
similar. There's no fixed list to select from but using the same "area" as
|
||||||
|
other related changes could make sense.
