Look into your IDE for options on connecting with Jira and with the source code controls system being used.

Jira and Git*

Section titled “Jira and Git*”

There is a great way for tracking commits through Jira.  Once this is set up (look here for instructions), you will need to make commit messages of a specific format.

The format for every commit message (including bugs) should have the format:

[] -

So, for example:

[ABC-123] - The commit message that relates to the Jira ticket identifier at the beginning of the line.

The “[]” are punctuational sugar, but it helps to keeps the ticket number together, visually.

For commit messages that pertain to multiple tickets, use the following format:

[ABC-456,ABC-789] - The commit message that relates to the set of Jira ticket identifiers at the beginning of the line.

It is important to have the full ticket identifier for each item.  So, [ABC-456,ABC-789] is valid and [ABC-456,789]is not.

For commits with multiple lines, this applies to the first line of the commit message.
