linking git and todo lists

Desired:

I'd like to be have my git commits reference some higher order/level task or todo list.

Background:

I use Git as my version control. Now, DVCS is great. A great side effect is that the log should contain, with 开发者_JAVA技巧some care, an atomic list of the actions taken to achieve a task. This is the bottom level of a 'knowledge base' really, since a third party, reading the log would know what actions were taken to solve a problem. That's nice.

Now , I am seeking a way to link 'todo list' or more generally, higher level tasks to my commits.

ie: "Resolving task $TASK":

• commit log entry 1
• commit log entry 2
• commit log entry 3

The end result would be a task linked with the atomic actions used to achieve it, which for many tasks would become a knowledge base , ticketing and project management solution.

Does something like this exist? Or do I have to fall back to a wiki or something?

Does something like this exist?

ticketing systems can have a Git plugin achieving just that.

For instance, Jira has a Git plugin:

It'a more the opposite direction but there are issue tracker (e.g. Redmine) who can detect ticket numbers in the commit message and link commits to the related ticket.
