Can we please have the full issue URL there, either by convention (as we do
now) or enforced by the tooling? In the best case, the raw number is
inconvenient when looking up the issue from the commit (outside the web
UI): "Select+copy number, switch to browser, go to gitlab.gnome.org, paste
number" vs. "click a link". In the worst case it's confusing, because it is
unclear what the number refers to - for example the github mirror will
likely turn them into links to non-existent issues on github, and if we
ever decide to migrate to something else in the future, you need to know
which issue tracker was used at the time of the commit.
