Discussion in commit/PR are both under full control by github,
HUB is in the hands of QGIS developers. Ticketting system allows
to attach a milestone to the issue, postponing if agreed. It also
allows to query for "all issues fixed in version X" which is easier
to answer than associating a (usually higher) number of commits to
the corresponding issue.
