At work, there are a lot of trivial commits, and I don't mind. What I do mind is if something breaks, I go looking at commits, and there are no ticket numbers

At work, there are a lot of trivial commits, and I don't mind. What I do mind is if something breaks, I go looking at commits, and there are no ticket numbers or other tracking info mentioned in the commit or merge request.

Pre-commit hooks - most places I've worked at (including open source projects) require you to tag the ticket/issue number.

  does this discourage opportunistic code cleanup?

    I discourage that, unless it's very minor! Major code cleanup gets its own ticket. But if it's just fixing a minor spelling issue etc. then no, why would requiring the ticket number to be in the commit be an issue?
