Can commitizen be pre-compiled?

[jimthedev]

Right now we're using babel/register to run everything in commitizen and to get ES6 features. I'm doing this because I need to be able to require() adapters on the fly but still get the features of ES6. I'd love for most of the cli to be pre-built with babel, leaving only the adapter part to using babel/register. This would help git-cz to be faster. I've never done this before and am not even sure if it is possible. Any help would be great.

One can add:

"scripts": {
    "prepublish": "node node_modules/babel/bin/babel.js src --out-dir dist"
}

And then create a .npmignore file to ignore the source files to be publish:

/src

And point the main file in package.json to the dist folder:

"main": "dist/index.js"

I think that would do the trick.

I can create a pull request if you want.

If you want to put in a PR, that'd be excellent. My main concern is that we do a lot of work with paths and I'd just need to find a way to test the built version. Thanks so much!
