I've just expanded that section; please review I've added a reference to [1] (even though almost all commit messages I've seen already follow that convention anyway). I refrained from mentioning some of the additional syntax variants recognized by the commit message parser (such as "closes issue 1234" as alternative for "closes #1234") as it makes grepping through commit messages more difficult. While at it, I added "resolve{,s,ed}" to the list of verbs to mimic GitHub's supported keywords[2]. Btw, if this is desired, we could make a commit add a ticket comment as soon as the respective ticket-number occurs (i.e. w/o any preceding verb). This would effectively make Trac recognize a subset of GitHub's syntax. I could implement this together with the mergefix-verb feature you proposed.
