Am I the only person that thinks putting Jira ticket references in commit messages is straight up a bad practice. We have other ways of linking changes to tickets (PRs for example), commit messages should describe the change in the commit as best as possible.

I work in a place that currently enforces this on every commit, and when I try to discuss removing this constraint people start referring to it as a "good practice", I feel like I'm going crazy!

I don’t know if it is good practice but I bet there is a really interesting story behind why your org does that. I would probably get annoyed by it really quickly.
