Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings using JavaScript regular expression syntax:

    Tip: Match a ticket in a branch created by Jira using a pattern such as: .*(TEST-\d+).*

  • gitPrefix.patternIgnoreCase: Ignore case in pattern. Default is false.

  • gitPrefix.replacement: Regular expression replacement string to place into commit message. Default is "[$1] ".

Happy Committing!
