Commit to bitbucket from Jira issues

[SandeepSingh R]

Hello Folks, 

I just need to understand, once i permit Bitbucket to Jira, create issues, create repos, create branches, linking the issues to branches, how can I directly commit from JIRA

Hi @SandeepSingh R,

If you integrate Bitbucket Cloud with Jira Cloud, then you can:

• create Jira issues from Bitbucket with a pull request
• create a branch from a Jira issue (you will see a link Create branch in a Jira issue's Development panel)
• link issues to branches: you can include the Jira issue key in the name of a branch in order to link them
• use smart commits

Creating a repo from Jira is not possible and neither is committing from Jira.

You can do simple commits from the Bitbucket Cloud website, like editing and committing a certain file or adding and committing a new file. These operations are limited to one file only. If you want to commit multiple files or commit file deletions, these operations need to be done locally in a clone.

Jira does not host your Git reposirories, it doesn't have a clone of your repo to allow you to commit. Even the 'Create branch' option redirects you to the Bitbucket Cloud website to create a branch.

Could you please share some more details about your workflow and what exactly you are looking to commit?

Kind regards,
Theodora
