When creating a commit with the git cli, git pre-populates the editor
used to enter the commit message with some comments (i.e. lines starting
with `#`). These comments contain helpful instructions or information
regarding the changes that are part of the commit. As happens with all
commit message comments, they are removed by git and do not end up in
the final commit message.
However, the file that is passed to the `commit-msg` to be validated
still contains these comments. This may affect the outcome of the commit
message validation. In such cases, the author will not realize that the
commit message is not in the desired format until the linting checks
fail on CI (which validates the final commit messages and is not
affected by this issue), usually several minutes later.
Possible ways in which the commit message validation outcome can be
affected:
- The minimum body length check may pass incorrectly, even if there is
no actual body, because the comments are counted as part of the body.
- The maximum line length check may fail incorrectly due to a very long
line in the comments.
This commit fixes the problem by removing comment lines before
validating a commit message.

Previously commit message types were provided as part of the ng-dev config in the repository
using the ng-dev toolset. This change removes this configuration expectation and instead
predefines the valid types for commit messages.
Additionally, with this new unified set of types requirements around providing a scope have
been put in place. Scopes are either required, optional or forbidden for a given commit
type.
PR Close#38430
When a commit message fails validation, rather than throwing out the commit message entirely
the commit message is saved into a draft file and restored on the next commit attempt.
PR Close#38304
The dev-infra commit message validation optionally can check for lines
to not exceed a given amount of characters. This is desired for most
commit messages, but sometimes not actionable if a long URL is inserted
into the commit message. With this commit, we skip the max line length
check for lines that start with an URL.

This feature will allow us to exclude certain commits from the 100 chars minBodyLength requirement for commit
messages which is hard to satisfy for commits that make trivial changes (e.g. fixing typos in docs or comments).

There is an `exec()` helper provided by `utils/shelljs.ts`, which is a
wrapper around ShellJS' `exec()` with some default options (currently
`silent: true`). The intention is to avoid having to pass these options
to every invocation of the `exec()` function.
This commit updates all code inside `dev-infra/` to use this helper
whenever possible).
NOTE: For simplicity, the `utils/shelljs` helper does not support some
of the less common call signatures of the original `exec()`
helper, so in some cases we still need to use the original.

Release commits do not require a commit body as the context, usually
provided in commit body, is already available in the process of
releasing. No additional value is gained from adding a body message
on these commits.

As per our discussion in the dev-infra sync meeting, we don't want
to have all dependencies show up as peer dependencies. Instead, we
only want to have larger dependencies such as `typescript` or buildifier
as peer dependencies. Tslib is also included for the sake of it being
generally a peer dependency of all Angular framework packages.
The rationale is that Yarn is smart enough to collapse packages
if all satisfy a given range. This means that we don't necessarily
need to have all dependencies as peer dependencies. The initial
idea was to keep all dependencies as peer dependencies so that
we have control over duplication of packages as downloading multiple
packages w/ different versions impacts local dev, CI and caches.
At the same time though, we don't want to bother with setting
up peer dependencies all the time. Not every consumer of the
shared dev-infra package would like to manually specify `yaml`
or `multimatch` etc. in the project `package.json`. Hence we
decided to go with a hybrid approach where only more impactful
dependencies are peer dependencies, and other smaller ones can
be standard depdencies that are usually collapsed by Yarn anyway.
Also this commit removes tslib from build targets that don't
rely on it.

Previously we used gulp to run our formatter, currently clang-format,
across our repository. This new tool within ng-dev allows us to
migrate away from our gulp based solution as our gulp solution had
issue with memory pressure and would cause OOM errors with too large
of change sets.

Enforces a requirement that all PR commit messages contain a body
of at least 100 characters. This is meant to encourage commits
within the repo to be more descriptive of each change.
PR Close#36632
Previously, the commit message body regex only matched the first line
of the body. This change corrects the regex to match the entire line.
PR Close#36632
This commit fixes an issue where adding `fixup` commits was triggering a lint error. The problem was caused by the fact that we used the entire message body while checking whether `fixup` commit has a corresponding "parent" commit in a range. This issue was found after enforcing a check that exits the process if there is an invalid commit message found (4341743b4a).
PR Close#36733
Currently the `commit-message` validation script does not exit
with a non-zero exit code if the commit message validation failed.
This means that invalid commit messages are currently not
causing CI to be red. See: https://circleci.com/gh/angular/angular/686008
PR Close#36723
Previously, the `pre-commit-validate` command (used in the `commit-msg`
git hook) assumed that the commit message was stored in
`.git/COMMIT_EDITMSG` file. This is usually true, but not when using
[git worktrees](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-worktree), where `.git` is
a file containing the path to the actual git directory.
This commit fixes it by taking advantage of the fact that git passes the
actual path of the file holding the commit message to the `commit-msg`
hook and husky exposes the arguments passed by git as
`$HUSKY_GIT_PARAMS`.
NOTE:
We cannot use the environment variable directly in the `commit-msg` hook
command, because environment variables need to be referenced differently
on Windows (`%VAR_NAME%`) vs macOS/Linux (`$VAR_NAME`). Instead, we pass
the name of the environment variable and the validation script reads the
variable's value off of `process.env`.
PR Close#36507
Prior to this change we manage a local version of commit message validation
in addition to the commit message validation tool contained in the ng-dev
tooling. By adding the ability to validate a range of commit messages
together, the remaining piece of commit message validation that is in the
local version is replicated.
We use both commands provided by the `ng-dev commit-message` tooling:
- pre-commit-validate: Set to automatically run on an git hook to validate
commits as they are created locally.
- validate-range: Run by CI for every PR, testing that all of the commits
added by the PR are valid when considered together. Ensuring that all
fixups are matched to another commit in the change.
