Under For SmartLinks, Include repository URL and Include commit message control the optional information in SmartLinks. Both options are off by default. The repository URL allows recipients to clone the repository from the link, but may contain sensitive project information. When it is omitted, recipients need a matching repository already known to SmartGit. The short commit message makes links easier to identify and is not required to open the commit.
