Mea culpa: I recently merged a trivial, one-commit PR without an accompanying Jira.
Cheng Pan mentioned this is probably not accepted practice: https://github.com/apache/hadoop/pull/8439#issuecomment-4276717996 Looks like he was right according to our How To Contribute guide[1]. Filing Jiras for trivial changes like this (fixing spelling in comments) creates clutter and wastes time, but there may be some reasons we want this. Some options: A. Require a JIRA. B. Allow a standard prefix like "trivial:" or "MINOR:" in place of the Jira ID. C. Send Fabbri straight to jail and never speak of this again. A compromise for A could be to file a permanent "Trivial Changes" JIRA explaining it applies to non-code changes of limited scope. I could add that to the contribution guide if people liked that idea. Apologies if I missed previous discussions about this.
