Added a TIL on something I thought I had done a

long time ago. But I could not find it when I
needed it. So this time around it got a write up

+# Work on issues from comments and commit messages
+
+You can then specify one of the following strings, followed by a issue number, to work on an issue from a commit message or comment:
+
+- `close`
+- `closes`
+- `closed`
+- `fixes`
+- `fixed`
+
+Example:
+
+```bash
+git commit -m "Closes #34"
+```
+
+The string is case-insensitive and can be followed by a colon or not I believe (have not thoroughly tested this).
+
+And most importantly only works on your primary branch whether you call in `main`, `master`, or something else. So for a commit, the closing of the issue will not happen until the commit is merged into the primary branch.
