Hi Gordon,

You right that usualy, the short SHA1 id of the commit could be considerated as unique, the point is elsewhere, I explain, a commit in Git unlike Svn doesn't identify by force a bugfix or a new feature described in a JIRA ticket, it can be a set of commits (so called a changeset), so, that's this changeset that has to be linked to the JIRA ticket, that's where the FishEye JIRA plugin comes in action, it tracks the Commits until their message contains the Issue ID and show them up in the source tab of the JIRA isuue.

Am I clear ?

what can we put in JIRA to show exactly what changes that have occurred

I read that the first 7 characters of the 40-character SHA-1 hash for a commit are typically used to identify the commit, because they are usually enough to distinguish it. So we should use these 7 characters as a build number.

Hi,

You can check writing the JIRA ticket id in the commit message(s), push it/them , then go to JIRA, in the source tab, you should see all the modified files (if this feature is not broken again).

As far as I know this is not a feature we have - so what can we put in JIRA to show exactly what changes that have occurred.

Justin
