Wrong Proto outer classname in generated code, does not compile

See original GitHub issue

Given a proto file ServiceM:

syntax = "proto3";
package com.mycompany;

service ServiceM {...}
message reqM {...}

Generated object ServiceMGrpcKt refers to Servicem.reqM, that doesn’t exist. The correct outer classname is ServiceMOuterClass. This makes the plugin unusable unless the outer classname is explicitly specified in the proto file.

Oh, I see you mean the contents of the commit message, not the format. The style guide recommends camel case, so it’s in reference to that.

The style guide recommends camel case

https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/style#message_and_field_names

I’m guessing you’re referring to the following:

Use CamelCase (with an initial capital) for message names

and the name of the proto file is irrelevant. Correct?
