It seems like there is actually not a consensus on this. (I had thought Smaug's view was the consensus, and found bz's post surprising.)
Both approaches have tradeoffs. There's a good reason we require the bug number front and center in a commit message. But I dare you to read the Web Replay bug <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1207696> for context; it's currently on comment 366. (Granted, that bug should have been subdivided, but there are other examples.) If this is worth settling, we should definitely *not* settle it on this list. A mailing list is fine for making one's case or pointing out issues, but the final decision should be made by a small group of engineering leadership, and then documented on wiki.m.o. (If it isn't there already! I looked but couldn't find anything definitive...) _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
