While pulling down some of the patches to review/look-over, I noticed
that our convention for commit messages doesn't play very nicely with
git-am.  By enclosing the ticket # in square brackets, git-am ends up
stripping the ticket number out, thinking it's part of the "normal"
preamble.

For example, when I save the message, and apply it using git-am, Pauls
message with the subject

  [Puppet-dev] [PATCH/puppet 1/1] [#4716] ResourceTypeAPI exposes 
implementation details that are likely to change

becomes

  ResourceTypeAPI exposes implementation details that are likely to change


This seems a bit problematic to me.

Perhaps we might want to change the convention to be "(#4716) ...",
"#4716: ...", or something else that isn't square brackets?  Thoughts?
