Enable for commit editing in Emacs

With EDITOR environment variable or git core.editor set up for Emacs a temporary file is available for editors external to git for convenient commit message writing. Normally it's ./.git/COMMIT_EDITMSG and in ncombination with find-file-hook one can listen for buffer's name and enable the mode for conventional commits like this:

(add-hook
 'find-file-hook
 (lambda (&rest _)
   (if (string= (file-name-base buffer-file-name) "COMMIT_EDITMSG")
       (conventional-commits-mode)
     (conventional-comments-mode))))
