Correct answer: AB#715.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer is AB715. Azure Boards integrates with GitHub, allowing you to link commits directly to work items. By including "AB" followed by the work item ID (e.g., AB715) in your commit message, Azure Boards automatically detects this reference and creates a link between the commit and the specified work item. This helps track development progress and maintain traceability. Including "the URL of the work item" would not automatically link the work item; it would just be text in the commit message. "@715" is not the correct syntax for linking work items in Azure Boards from GitHub. "715" is the standard GitHub syntax for referencing issues within GitHub itself, but it does not link to Azure Boards work items.
