Code Management

For better understanding, the following pattern has been used for writing commit messages:

feat: (addition of a new feature)
rfac: (refactoring the code: optimization/ different logic of existing code - output doesn't change, just the way of execution changes)
docs: (documenting the code, be it readme, or extra comments)
bfix: (bug fixing)
chor: (chore - beautifying code, indents, spaces, camel casing, changing variable names to have an appropriate meaning)
ptch: (patches - small changes in code, mainly UI, for example color of a button, increasing size of text, etc)
conf: (configurational settings - changing directory structure, updating gitignore, add libraries, etc)
