Hello all, this has been discussed before, and I believe we concluded that we did not want to auto-close JIRA issues referenced by a PR. I wanted us to revisit this decision, because I don't think everyone has adopted the correct workflow:
Workflow A: 1. Send a PR to fix BEAM-X 2. Go to JIRA, and mark BEAM-X as resolved. Many of us do (1), but not (2) as much. The main argument was to avoid messing with this workflow: Workflow B: 1. Send a PR related to BEAM-X 2. Send a PR related to BEAM-X .... N-1. Send a PR that fully fixes BEAM-X N. Go to JIRA, and mark BEAM-X as resolved. But, perhaps we should optimize for the very common case of Workflow A, and let community members manually manage the less common case of Workflow B. What do others think? -P.
