Can we start putting our bug references in our updates?

[to the mailing list at large] I have no objection.

mveron:

This rule should be written down somewhere in the Wiki.
But where?

It took some hunting, but I think it is already written down:
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Guidelines_for_Patch_Acceptance/Rejection
"9. The patch must refer to a bug number"

And if you follow the bug number link:
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Coding_Guidelines#Bug_numbers
"... include Bug + the bug number at the beginning of your commit message ..."

I think Coding Guidelines is the right place to put it, but Nicole is asking about the messages in updatedatabase not commit messages.

Though, these both could be clarified to expressly say in the first line of the commit message. I must have read this at some point in time, because I have been doing this. I just didn't remember why.

I suspect you're doing it because I failed your first patch for not having the bug number in the first line of the commit message.

Regards,

Jared
