API to comment on an issue?

Created by: cviebrock

The "Edit Issue" API just allows me to edit the original issue title, description, etc.. There doesn't appear to be an API endpoint that allows me to comment on an issue.

This would be nice so I could write git commit hooks that, for example, automatically close an issue if the text "fixes #xxx" appears in the commit message (just like the example here) ... but also takes the text of the commit message and adds it as a comment to the issue (so you can reference the particular commit that fixed the issue). All like Github does on the server side.

Thanks!
