### Finding Wonderful Bugs
>This section guides you through submitting a bug report. Following these guidelines helps maintainers and the community understand your report, reproduce the behavior, and find related reports.
When you are creating a bug report, please include as many details as possible. Fill out the required template, the information it asks for helps us resolve issues faster. We have a [template](Bugs.md) to create issues. Please use this template.
Explain the problem and include additional details to help maintainers reproduce the problem:
***Use a clear and descriptive title** for the issue to identify the problem.
***Describe the exact steps which reproduce the problem** in as many details as possible. For example, start by explaining wich brower and it's version. When listing steps, don't just say what you did, but explain how you did it. For example, if you moved the cursor to the end of an input, explain if you used the mouse, or a keyboard.
***Describe the behavior** you observed after following the steps and point out what exactly is the problem with that behavior.
***Explain which behavior** you expected to see instead and why.
***Include screenshots and animated GIFs** which show you following the described steps and clearly demonstrate the problem. You can use [this tool](http://www.cockos.com/licecap/) to record GIFs on macOS and Windows, and this tool or [this tool](https://github.com/GNOME/byzanz) on Linux.

## Coding with style
### Git Commit Messages
>Having a good guideline for creating commits and sticking to it makes working with Git and collaborating with others a lot easier.
Here are some rules of thumb :
* Use the present tense ("Add feature" not "Added feature")
* If you have a body, separate the subject from the body with a newline
* Limit the subject line to 72 characters
* Do not end the subject line with a period
* Use imperative [mood](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperative_mood#English) in the subject line
* If the subject is not clear enough, use the body to explain what and why as opposed to how
* Consider starting the commit message with an applicable emoji, when you feel it's an important commit :
* :tada: When first / initial commit
* :sparkles: When introducing new features
* :ambulance: When fixing a bug
* :handshake: When merging files
* :tractor: When you changing file structure or refactoring
* :books: When writing docs
* :gem: When new Release
* :lipstick: For cosmetics purposes
#### Commit Message Format
Each commit message consists of a **header**, a **body** and a **footer**. The header has a special format that includes a **type**, a **scope** and a **subject**:
```
<emoji> <type>(<scope>): <subject>
<BLANK LINE>
<body>
<BLANK LINE>
<footer>
```
The **header** is mandatory and the **scope** of the header is optional.
Examples:
```
:sparkles: feat(supann): Make supannRefId multivaluated
supannRefId on Structure object is too small and mono valued
close #5685
```
