The description of InVCS keyword in bugzilla is:
InVCS   Fix has been added to a VCS(either CVS, SVN, Git, ...)
repository. Will be closed when fixes are applied to a stable level package.

A bug isn't resolved until it is fixed in a stable package (for packages
ever in stable to begin with), but InVCS keyword can be used by
developers to filter out the bugs for issues to work with. I oppose a
change to that behavior, although I would like to see it being used more
consistently as it seems quite a few developers are neglecting the
stable tree.
