the only authoritative reference is the sha1 of an already integrated
commit, so qtbase/12345678990abcdef is the only variant which would get
my support. mentioning other change-ids (without any magic keywords) is
possible, but should not be necessary to make sense out of a commit
message (as gerrit is an optional process-supporting tool which could be
replaced with something better any time. ok, the same could be said
about git sha1, but you have to have *something* which can be used for
references).

and to answer your original question, the authoritative documentation is
the qt5/.commit-template.
there are no hooks whatsoever related to keywords. all requests and
offers to implement some intelligent integration (like kde has) were
directed straight to /dev/null by mark (i.e., i never even got as much
as a direct response, only some meta-talk about fisheye on the infamous
jira expert group mailing list).
