… if the developers remember to set the BUG: field in that commit (and ideally FIXED-IN: as well. Which is most of the time, but sometimes developers (or in this case translators) may not be aware of a particular bug report and notice the issue independently, or they may just forget the field and no one else notices. So the bug may still be fixed even if it’s not explicitly marked (and in those cases, the bug should be updated and resolved manually).
