Associate an issue with a code commit

When checking in files to your SCM repository, you can create links to one or more Issue Tracker issues.

Associations track the relationship between code and the bugs, feature requests, or other issues that the code addresses.
  1. Before making a code commit, select the issue in the Site Explorer.
  2. Right-click and select Create log message. The issue ID and title are copied to the clipboard in the format Issue ID : title. For example, "Issue 1234: Test for user-select field".
  3. When making a code commit, paste the text into the appropriate location, such as the Subversion log message text area. The issue gets associated with the commit.
