Is there any way in Visual Studio to prefix comment while commiting?
From the screenshot below

I want to prefix my comment to the changes including work item's id. So I expect to get this:
TFS - 123: Want to prefix this comment with work item's id
Currently I need to enter work item's id in both places in Comment and Related Work Items sections which is borring. What I want is just pass them into one place (Related Work Items section) and when I click Check In Visual studio will automatically prefix my comment.
Would be nice to set some pattern how to prefix:
TFS - {id}: {comment} or something like that in Visual Studio settings.

Why do you feel the need to duplicate the ID into the comment when, as you've already observed, it's being stored in a structured and searchable manner as a Related Work Item?
