We need to set commit messages to come to this list (Gavin, do you have the necessary foo for this?)
In the meantime, it is clear that the commit messages are not including the issue number from where the patch is retrieved. i.e. "WOOKIE-26" It is important to do this because it creates the IP trail for contributions. From the commit message we can see the issue, from the issue we can see the contributor agreed for it to be included in the project. Another important reason is that JIRA picks this up and records it in the comments. Whilst on the topic of commit messages they should also include the name of the original contributor, e.g. "applied patch to fix broken foobar (WOOKIE-34). Thanks to Jane Bloggs." This is so that the contributor gets credited and also so that we can track people contributions with a simple search of the mail archives (once the commit to mail bridge is set up).
