This sounds nice to me, as the current process is obviously quite opaque. My 
bugs have been fixed pretty quickly so far, so I can't complain. But seeing the 
priority would be helpful to me to plan whether I need to develop a workaround 
for my problem, etc.

One thing that would be nice: Usually the only comments that show up by the 
maintainers in Bugzilla are the commit changeset numbers. I like to know the 
details of the fix. It would nice if the changeset references were actual 
links, as tracking them down in gitorious is a bit tedious. And/or perhaps the 
changeset comments could be included. Hopefully these enhancements could be 
done automatically. Either would make the Pyside bugzilla database a bit more 
useful in giving information about a fixed bug.

In think there are two ways to improve this:

A) setup some sort of "post-commit script"  that looks for "Fixes
#NNN" in commit messages and add a comment to that bug with the commit
link/details

This is also what happens in many other Bugzillas, including the Nokia-internal ones. However, since our bug amount is still relatively small, I don't think setting up such a formal release process would be worth the while.

B) Have bugzilla itself translate commit hashes into URLs like
http://qt.gitorious.org/pyside/pyside/commit/af9b887b1ee894b92c45a91592e9ed3a5f943299

This would work. I think an easier solution would be to just manually paste the URL to the bugfix, however. The time spent doing that would be 30 seconds, maximum, so it'd take quite a few bugs to justify the time spent in studying Bugzilla guts for making the regexp replacement there. :-)

Cheers,

ma.
