language detection error

Just had the following output from commitlint, where it has incorrectly detected the language:

input: feat(commitlint-config-default): add default commitlint rules
⚠   commit must be in languague "eng", was one of: fra, cat, src, spa, sco [lang]
⚠   found 0 problems, 1 warnings

Running npx franc-cli "feat(commitlint-config-default): add default commitlint rules" yields cat as the result 😖

(Also note the minor typo in the error message)

Thanks for bringing the unknown constraints of development environments to the table, that rules out remote API usage.

My goal for commitlint is being as seamless as eslint, possibly adding autofix capabilities and commit message suggestions in the very long run. Keeping around flaky rules will prevent the tool from achieving that.

That being said I’d do this by deprecating them in some of the 2.x releases by warning on stderr if they are used and remove them with the 3.0 release the earliest.

I just recently adopted commitlint, and the lang and subject-tense rules result in false negative warnings for every commit. I’d definitely love to see them removed/improved, so that my commit lint runs were “clean”. Ideally, any error or warning would be actionable, so that they’re worth paying attention to.
