I use a lot of unfuddle, so always in my commit use this message:

- Ticket #11: my description


then if I need find the commits for that ticket, only need type in the console this:


$ git log master --reverse --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline | grep "#11"


and return something like this:


34ab0df Ticket #11: description 1
8a40fd1 Ticket #11: description 2
