US073 - As developer I would like to be able to link my commit message with reported bug, so I can link my fix with bug Issue.

Description:

As a developer, I want to link my commit messages to bug tracking issues, so that I can clearly associate my fixes with reported bugs and maintain traceability.

Linked Requirements & Use Cases:

Current Definition of Done

  • Commit messages reference corresponding bug/issue ID

  • Project uses issue tracking system that supports commit linking (e.g., GitLab, GitHub)

  • Issue tracking updates automatically when commits are pushed (status updated or issue closed)

  • Documentation includes a short guide on commit message format conventions

  • CI/CD pipeline reflects changes in linked issue metadata (e.g., references in changelogs)

Acceptance Criterias

  • Developer can include issue/bug ID in commit messages following a standard format
  • Each commit fixing a bug includes clear message and issue link
  • Reviewers validate if commit messages reference correct issue during code review
