Yep, thanks.

This commit message needs to have a bug number in it in the proper
format or our commit hook refuses to accept it:

> remote: transaction abort!
> remote: rollback completed
> remote: abort: pretxnchangegroup.bugid hook exited with status 1

This helps us enforce documentation of each change through the bug
tracker. You've got the number in the subject of the email (although not
in the format the hook recognizes) but not in the commit message which
is what actually goes into the tree.

See the "Patch Guidelines" part of the process document, specifically
the "you must include a bug number" part:
