Summary

At libvirt project, we tend to put 'Resolves: $issue' into commit messages to automatically close issues when the commit is merged. For instance:

libvirt/libvirt@106d795f

libvirt/libvirt@6f3f6c0f

But despite this being recognized pattern (per docs) neither of linked issues were closed automatically and had to be closed by hand. I have not tried other keywords, maybe some of them works, maybe not.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create an issue in a project
2. Create a commit and put 'Resolves: $issue` into the commit message
3. Push the commit into the master branch
4. Observe open issue

Example Project
