The only "convention" that exists is the Conventional Commits' one. It is sensible and compatible with some tools. As long as you write "fix:", "feat:" or "chore:" you'll be fine.

Don't overthink it though, it's a thing that is used in some open-source projects and companies. As long as you follow the rules of the project, you'll be fine. Same for the coding style and format, do like everyone else.

Half of it is automation to generate pretty changelogs if an audit ever happens. The other half is to make sure that devs know that rules are set in order to make them think about what they are doing. It seems a bit restrictive, but it's a good way to say "your commits should be clean and focused on one topic and one topic only."
