+## Predefined commit message prefix
+In situations where certain naming pattern is used for branches and commits, pattern can be used to populate
+commit message with prefix that is parsed from the branch name.
+
+Example:
+* Branch name: feature/AB-123
+* Commit message: [AB-123] Adding feature
+
+```yaml
+  git:
+    commitPrefixes:
+      my_project: # This is repository folder name
+        pattern: "^\\w+\\/(\\w+-\\w+)"
+        replace: "[$1] "
