An example is git-svn, which adds a line at the bottom of commit
messages that looks like

    git-svn-id: http://cvs2svn.tigris.org/svn/cvs2svn/trunk@5031
be7e6eca-30d4-0310-a8e5-ac0d63af7087

In this case I don't know specifically whether the information is used
by the software or is just there for user edification.
