1. flycheck-commit-check v0.1.0
This is the flycheck-commit-check project. It is a Flycheck checker that uses commit-check to provide syntax checking for git commit messages.
The code can be found in flycheck-commit-check.el in the project
source tree.
1.1. Installation
As with all Emacs packages installation can be done in a number of ways. The only dependencies it has are flycheck and git-commit-mode.
You must, of course, also have commit-check installed on your
system and available in your PATH.
1.1.1. Manual installation
If you don't (yet) use the Emacs package manager you can install
it manually by downloading the code somewhere, adding the path to
your load-path and either require-ing or eval-after-load-ing the
package, like so:
(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/flycheck-commit-message") ;;; Option 1 (require 'flycheck-commit-check) ;;; Option 2 (eval-after-load 'flycheck `(require 'flycheck-commit-check)) ;;; Option 3 --- Only for Emacs 24 and up (with-eval-after-load 'flycheck (require 'flycheck-commit-check))
1.1.2. Installation with package manager
To install this package with the Emacs package manager, download
the flycheck-commit-message.el file and call package-install-file
and then pick the downloaded file. Afterwards you should add
something like the following to your Emacs init file:
(eval-after-load 'flycheck (require 'flycheck-commit-check))
1.2. Usage
After installing the package you will have to setup flycheck for git commits, which is easy:
(add-hook 'git-commit-mode-hook #'flycheck-mode)
