Code support on commit messages

Hi folks,

Can we convert backticks to <code>**CODE**</code> on Buildkite’s pipeline commit message? Let me illustrate:

SNAG-0291
SNAG-02911464×623 87.6 KB

This is just a simple <code>. This can be a different font like bold or color. To make sure it is a partial code.

Can this be added?

Thanks,
Gencer.

Hi Gencer,

Thanks for this! We’ve had a look at it and we’re a bit hesitant to apply any formatting to this particular section. The reason for this is that these are generally commit messages—GitHub doesn’t employ any markdown flavoured formatting (including backticks!) to it on their end.

Cheers,
Eleanor

GitHub doesn’t employ any markdown flavoured formatting (including backticks!) to it on their end.

And they are doing it now. GitHub supports code blocks in commit messages, issues, PRs and everywhere. Can we revisit this?
