Since working a one company that required it, ever since I've adopted the policy of including a link to the bug / feature ticket for every commit. Even for my personal projects, if I'm fixing something, I'll manage them with JIRA and will create a 1 line bug ticket just before committing so that I have an ID to reference. I also have a long-lasting tickets for general refactoring / code cleanup without a bug fix.
