Proprietary task references in commit logs

Alexander;

So, we've been in a similar boat, in that we have a Google-Bug-Id in
all our commits.  However, for openbmc we've been trimming them out.
I think part of the argument is to keep the commit message clean, or
if necessary file a corresponding bug in the openbmc bug track, and
then close that bug id.

Can you point the jira bug to the github bug track?
