I'm sorry but I never understood the FIXED-IN: tag, if somebody
explains it maybe if I understand it, it will be easier to add this
information (like I've done with others, like BUG).

In git you know if a bug it's fixed in a release because the release
log contains the bug fix. That is:
    git log KDE/4.8..KDE/4.9 | grep "BUG: <id>"

To know if it's in a minor version, we can check if it's after the
release tag (if it's after 4.9.2 tag, then it's in 4.9.3).

So, what does FIXED-IN tag offer? Or is it just a hack because we
don't have the proper tool set?
