Comment (by nbruin):

 This ticket triggered for me a problem with git and finding history: I
 tried to find which ticket introduced the test in singular.polynomial, so
 I looked with `git blame`. That found some relevant commits, but none of
 them explicitly referred to a trac ticket and were otherwise terse,
 descriptive commit messages.

 By googling for one of the commit messages I quickly arrived at the trac
 ticket which had a lot more history of the problem than the commits, but
 I'm not sure we want to rely on external tools to document our history.

 Am I missing some trick that reliably leads to the trac ticket from a git
 commit? It is still often the case that trac ticket discussions contain a
 lot of detail (sometimes even relevant) that the commit messages don't
 (and probably shouldn't). I think it would be nice if we continue/resume
 providing links from git commits to trac tickets.
