Description

We want to automatically link pull requests to the issues they're associated with. The obvious answer is to include Closes ${issueNumberLabel} in the PR description template.

But it appears that the PR description templates do not support template syntax.

Implementing this would make it easier to track many small issues being used in a ticket-like way.
