jit

A command-line tool to simplify Git workflows for Jira users

Introduction

jit aims to make your life easier if you find yourself constantly switching between your terminal and your browser to look at Jira tickets.

In particular, use jit directly from your shell to:

• see Jira tickets assigned to you
• create a branch named after a Jira ticket and update the ticket's status
• create a new Jira ticket and start work on a corresponding branch

Installation

• Download jit from https://github.com/zenclabs/jit/releases.
• Run brew install libgit2 (or install it some other way).
• Run chmod +x jit.
• Call jit from within any Git repository.

Updating

jit checks for updates regularly. You will know when a new version is available.

Usage

# Print the list of Jira tickets assigned to you, pick a branch.
