Jira <-> Git Integration

warning

You MUST create a new Jira issue/ticket before creating a Git branch or doing any development/coding!

  1. All Jira tickets have an issue no (Jira Issue No) in the format HEAL-xxxx where xxxx is a numeric no. Eg: HEAL-4413. You must always reference this issue no HEAL-xxxx in all Git branches, commit or PRs.

  2. When creating branch names, ensure you follow the convention below:

    [your_initials]/[jira_issue_no] [short_description]
    Example

    eo/HEAL-1143 add jira/jit procedures

    initials: eo

    jira_issue_no: HEAL-1143

    short_description: add jira/git procedures

  3. When creating commits, ensure you prefix your commit message with the Jira issue no by following the convention below:

    [jira_issue_no] [short_commit_description]

    Example

    [HEAL-1143] created new file jira.md

    jira_issue_no: HEAL-1143

    short_commit_description: create a new file jira.md
