Commit+ Pro can list the Jira issues assigned to you next to your repository, so you can pick up the next task and start its branch without leaving the app.

​
Connect a Jira Cloud site

  1. Sign in to Commit+.
  2. Open Settings → Integrations and find Jira.
  3. Click Connect Jira….
  4. Enter your site (for example your-site.atlassian.net), your Atlassian account email, and an API token. Use Create an API token… to open the Atlassian token page.
  5. Commit+ checks the token with Jira before saving the connection.
Only Jira Cloud sites are supported. Create a Jira API token in your Atlassian account; a Bitbucket API token does not include Jira access. The API token is stored only in this Mac’s Keychain and is never synced. Use Reconnect… to replace it, or Remove… to delete the site and token from this Mac. Removing the connection does not revoke the token at Atlassian; revoke it from your Atlassian account if you no longer need it.

​
Browse your issues

Select Jira in the sidebar’s Workspace section. The list shows issues assigned to you, most recently updated first. If the item is hidden, turn it on from the Workspace visibility options.
  • Search by issue key or summary. A full key such as PROJ-123 matches that issue exactly.
  • Sprint — choose Open Sprints, Backlog, Any Sprint, or a specific sprint.
  • Status, Project, and Type filters narrow the list further. Use Reset Filters to clear them.
  • Click Refresh to reload issues from Jira.
Jira screen in Commit+ with sprint, status, project, and type filters, the assigned issue list, and an issue's details panel with Start Feature, Open in Jira, and Copy Key actions Select an issue to open its details panel. From the panel or the row’s context menu you can Open in Jira, Copy Key, or Copy Key and Summary.

​
Start a branch from an issue

Click the branch action in the details panel, or use Create Branch in the issue’s context menu. Commit+ suggests a branch name made from the issue key and summary, such as PROJ-123-fix-login-crash. When Git Flow is set up for the repository, the suggested action starts a Git Flow topic: Start Bugfix… for Bug and Defect issues, and Start Feature… for other types. Use Other Branch Types to start a feature, bugfix, or hotfix topic, or a plain New Branch… instead. Release topics are not offered because they are named after versions. Without Git Flow, the action creates a plain branch.

​
Reconnect

If Jira stops accepting the saved token, the Jira screen shows Reconnect Jira. Click Open Jira Settings… and choose Reconnect… to enter a new token.
