Yeah, it's a difference of methodologies. I prefer the alternate method of
providing detailed descriptions in source control commits of what has
changed, and mentioning the bug number if there happens to be one. I find it
very frustrating to see a commit message that simply says, "Fixed bug #42"
without any indication of what was done, and having to then go look at the
bug report to see the explanation that should, IMO, have been in the commit
message itself. I understand that others prefer this (more complicated)
method. I'll have to learn to live with it. :-)

That's nice to know. I've only had this one brief experience with it so far.
Maybe I'll even come to like the change. :-)
Thanks.
