2018-10-10CONTRIBUTING.md: Clarify clarification on periodsc74d1-1/+1
Commit 9428c28f7a37038b594c5ff36b1669b0f21afe41 added a note in `CONTRIBUTING.md` saying that, "For consistency, there should not be a period at the end of the commit message." I believe it would be more correct (with respect to consistency) to say that there should not be a full stop/period at the end of the commit message's *summary line* (the first line of the commit message) (indeed, the example commit message just above this note clearly does use full stops outside of its summary line), and this patch changes `CONTRIBUTING.md` accordingly.

2017-07-22CONTRIBUTING.md: suggest "nixos/<module>" prefix for NixOS changesBjørn Forsman1-3/+3
Suggest prefixing commit messages that touches NixOS code with "nixos/<module>" instead of the current "<name> service" prefix. "<name> service" is limiting in that NixOS code is more than the services. It is also easier to spot NixOS changes with explicit "nixos/..." prefix.
