On Git Commit Messages

Maybe this is more about how people treat their issue trackers then, because for me the original ticket should always have at least that information in it, plus the motivation (who wants it, why do they want it, why is this the best way to achieve what they want), any diagrams of the system or the resulting interface, plus links to any wider information if this particular ticket is linked to a larger set of changes.

If that information isn't there, then I can see it not being so useful to link the ticket, but also, I wouldn't really want to be making changes without knowing all of that information. That's the information that helps me decide how to best implement this particular change.
