our commits again are usually the ticket number and a small optional meaningful description i.e.

DEV-1234 mark cross customer call as external
which is automatically gets converted as a jira link on gitlab (we use a jira integration)

(I work in telco btw)

Also same for our branch names. They are ticket numbers DEV-1234 and when a branch is merged on develop /master etc, there is an automated comment on the ticket.

which is handy, because If I see something and I don't understand why it was done like that (poor comments, etc) I can go into the ticket read the description and make sense.
