header-only messages fail parsing

[devnev]

At the moment, a commit that is only a header line fails with "at least one empty line required after header". Even if github.com/conventionalcommit/commitlint is configured to not require body or footer lines.

Edit: From looking at the code, I think it happens when the header has a terminating newline before the eof. Which for me is what happens when I write a one-line commit message in git.

Hi, sorry for the late reply.

can you provide an example for the issue you mentioned?

Just looked again, I think I might have misunderstood the error.

When I tried the commitlint tool I was getting an "at least one empty line required after header", even for body-less commits. Looking again now, I see

→ input: "ci: hello world\n# Plea..."

Errors:
  ❌ parser: at least one empty line required after header

Which actually indicates that commitlint is failing to ignore the comment lines that appear in COMMIT_EDITMSG. That also makes me wonder if it will correctly ignore the diff present when doing a git commit -v. Either way, I guess this is more of an issue with the commitlint tool than the parser, sorry about that.
