MODERATORS
In the past I had commit messages with change numbers from a system, that was no longer in use.
So the commit just said “CH-12345“. It is the kind of annoying, where you can't even really be mad at someone.
I put my ticket numbers in my tickets, but i also try to describe the change too (e.g. “Fix bug where xyz happens due to zyx action”). Also, atomic commits: commit only related changes.
Yes, it takes longer to commit large changes, BUT you can easily merge the commits, and rollback only what needs to be rolled back.
