Alter and/or document hook logic about rdm

[johndgiese]

Great, if either of you feel like implementing this, that would be great! There is an internal project in Harvest for RDM. I added both of you to it.

@joshuatz this is definitely an annoying shortcoming of RDM's hooks; I've run into it a bunch of times.

@russellkan and @joshuatz , what do you guys think of only creating issues for dash-separated numbers at the start of the branch. Thus:

1-asdf --> 1
1-2asdf --> 1
1-2a-asdf --> 1
1-2-asdf --> (1, 2)
1-2-asdf-4 --> (1, 2)
1-2-3-asdf --> (1, 2, 3)

Also, I think describing this in the README is a good idea.

[russellkan]

I think that makes sense. It catches pretty much any case of numerals that aren't intended to be part of the issue listing, and adding a description to the README would definitely be helpful for users.

[joshuatz]

^ Agreed. Plus, it seems like enforcing a standard naming pattern for branches is a best practice anyways, and as a user I am usually happy to give up a little flexibility in exchange for more predicable behavior.

I'm up for taking it on - sounds like fun! I'll probably get to this tomorrow or over the weekend.
