+1 for applying this rule to all non-trivial commits.


A habit that Struts and Shale (among others) have adopted in this regard is
to have "omnibus" issues open for capturing the large number of small-scale
commits that contribute to some overall goal, but don't necessarily feel
like they're worth the effort to create an individual JIRA issue on their
own merits.  Examples include things like "bring all the website docs up to
date in preparation for release x.y.z" or "refactor this particular API into
a separate Maven module" that will likely be executed as a series of
discrete steps, but which can easily be tagged to such an omnibus issue.

It's not just for the convenience of the release manager in collecting
things for the release notes (although, as an RM, that feature is greatly
appreciated!  :-).  It's also about encouraging changes that implement
planned improvements (where the JIRA issues are used to plan out the
roadmap, as well as to track bugs and RFEs).
