Watching this, I very much agree that if Jira issues were created before the commit and included in the commit message, that would have been a communication improvement. The “before” benefit enables tracing a commit message back to a more detailed context description in Jira. Another potential miscommunication here could be the intended scope of the 4.0.x branch. The impression I get from Joe is that it was basically limited to enabling third-party webviews. The impression I get from Andrew is that is was more generally for breaking changes. If there is a mismatch in intention of scope, I think that is where most of the gear-grinding may be coming from. I believe that everyone is “trying to do the right thing”, just with a bit different goals.
