How do you set up your Jira project for smart commits

[Sean Burke]

Looking to use GIT and Jira together, where on the Jira admin do you set this up smart commits.  Thanks

Hi Sean, here are the docs for enabling smart commits in Jira Software.  If you are using Jira Software Server with Bitbucket server like we are, it looks like you need to go to Settings > Applications > Application Links.  If you already have a link to Bitbucket set up, click on the triple dot icon on the far right and you'll see the option for smart commits.  The process for setting up with cloud is also available on this doc:

Once you get that set up, it's just a matter of making commits with the proper keywords in it and things should auto update in Jira.  It's a pretty cool feature. Here's the user guide:
