Why not? This seems to be rather a feature of the repository. If you
configure the (Emacs) git repository that it detects "Fixes #45"
patterns in the commit message, then it needs just an email to
address@hidden with "close 45" in the body. Something, which
could be done by the commit-msg or post-commit scripts.

I'm not arguing to install this just now. But debbugs wouldn't be a
barrier to do it. No special debbugs configuration needed.

Best regards, Michael.
