One way I track down causes is using git. If I track a bug down to ABC.java, then running : git log -p -- ABC.java is useful for finding when the bug was introduced. When the commit is found that introduced the bug its commit message may have the issue number. > > I am curious about the practices of making such labels:-) > > BTW, is there any documents explaining those tags used in this system? > > Thanks very much! > Looking forward for your reply! > > Best > Justin
