- Prefixing your commit message with a domain is acceptable, and we recommend doing so when it makes sense. However, prefixing one's domain with the name of the repo is not useful. For example, making a commit entitled "mbed-drivers: Fix doppelwidget frobulation" to the `mbed-drivers` repo is not acceptable because it is already understood that the commit applies to `mbed-drivers`. Renaming the commit to "doppelwidget: Fix frobulation" would be better, if we presume that "doppelwidget" is a meaningful domain for changes, because it communicates that the change applies to the doppelwidget area of `mbed-drivers`.
