That's simple enough: have a text file with the emoji saved somewhere handy, or use a text macro expander to replace :colon_style_markup: with real emoji. If you don't already have an emoji input widget on hand, that is.
I have lots of commit rules in all my projects but they're simple, straightforward, and easy to remember because they're useful and commonplace. eg "Short one-line commit message, more details in the paragraph beneath it, atomic commits with single change per commit, no individual commit breaks the tests".
