How to close work items with Git commit

Question by Thomas D. (3) | Feb 10, 2015 at 09:57 AM devops-services git-integration work-items automatic

I would like to be able to close or resolve work items using git commit messages.

On github and gitlab this is possible by simply writing a commit message that starts with something like "Fixes #123", where 123 is the issue/defect number.

Is this possible on jazzhub as well?

I'm afraid this is not possible at this moment. Currently, IBM Bluemix DevOps Services offer to link to work items.

https://hub.jazz.net/docs/reference/git/#link_commit

I also think this is valid for simple work item such as 'Task' type. Personally, I hesitate to close large work item upon "git commit", because It is not guaranteed that the Story / Defect has really been implemented from stakeholder's view. This is my personal opinion.

I encourage you to put enhancement request for this (we will hear you !! ).

Hi Takehiko,

thanks for the hint about linking items - this will work for the time being.

I would love to put an enhancement request, but can't seem to find a website for doing so. Is it on developer.ibm.com or hub.jazz.net?

Cheers, Thomas

Edit: Never mind, I found the feedback URL in the FAQ.

I just opened an enhancement request for this: [1].
