Please don't hijack the discussion: the original poster did not question
the workflow adopted by the Git project itself but rather asked about
what is colloquially called "distributed bug tracker", and wanted to
have one integrated with (or into) Git. That is completely orthogonal
story.

As to searching for Git issues / problem solutions - I'd recommend using
the search on the main Git mailing list archive [1] and the issue
tracker of the Git for Windows project [2].

The communities around Git also include the "Git Users" low-volume
mailing list [3] (also perfectly searcheable), and the "git" tag at
StackOverflow [4].
