If the fix is for issue not in trac, presumably some trivial change
like a typo in some message, how does a commit without ticket link
break ipatool?

I understand that having reference to an issue in bugzilla in the
commit is useful because it's then possible to find commits related
to that issue, which is already tracked somewhere. Still, even for
bugzilla, you could possibly just use the bugzilla URL.

But if the issue is so small that noone really thought about filing
it before, what's the purpose of creating one? We don't seem to
suffer from the lack of tickets.
