+## Commit Message Templates
+You can customize the templates used by Netlify CMS to generate commit messages by setting the `commit_messages` option under `backend` in your `config.yml`.
+
+Template tags wrapped in curly braces will be expanded to include information about the file changed by the commit. For example, `{{path}}` will include the full path to the file changed.
+
+Setting up your `config.yml` to recreate the default values would look like this:
+
+```yaml
+backend:
+  commit_messages:
+    create: Create {{collection}} “{{slug}}”
+    update: Update {{collection}} “{{slug}}”
+    delete: Delete {{collection}} “{{slug}}”
+    uploadMedia: Upload “{{path}}”
+    deleteMedia: Delete “{{path}}”
+```
+
+Netlify CMS generates the following commit types:
+
+Commit type   | When is it triggered?        | Available template tags
+--------------|------------------------------|-----------------------------
+`create`      | A new entry is created       | `slug`, `path`, `collection`
+`update`      | An existing entry is changed | `slug`, `path`, `collection`
+`delete`      | An exising entry is deleted  | `slug`, `path`, `collection`
+`uploadMedia` | A media file is uploaded     | `path`
+`deleteMedia` | A media file is deleted      | `path`
+
+Template tags produce the following output:
+
+- `{{slug}}`: the url-safe filename of the entry changed
+
+- `{{collection}}`: the name of the collection containing the entry changed
+
+- `{{path}}`: the full path to the file changed
