Re: Request: Have git commit messages for design changes include links to relevant discussion email threads

Yep, this is good practice. Editors, Github will automatically do this if you reference the issue with "#"; e.g.,

"Change Foo to Bar; see #555."

Also, you can use "fixes" or "closes" to close the related issue. Please be careful when doing so with design issues, as we need to make sure they're properly accounted for. See: <https://help.github.com/articles/closing-issues-via-commit-messages>

Cheers,
