I do, but all I really need from the git is who, when, and a reference to a ticket. The code itself- combined with who wrote and when will generally tell me all I need to know. From there, a ticket will give me the any extra context might need.



But ticket systems are less stable than commit messages. Some companies decide to migrate to a new ticket system without migrating all the old "unnecessary" stuff.


That's just storing the information in a commit message in a separate database. Fine so long as you maintain the cross-links.
