Creating Merge Request with Branch #49

Open mahmad123 opened 4 years ago

mahmad123 commented 4 years ago

Introduction

In GitLab, you can create a Merge Request and a Branch from a GitLab issue. This is nice because you have traceability from issue to branch to merge request. Since most people using Jazz CCM will probably not want to manage a separate set of issues in GitLab (even if you can link it) it would be nice to create a Branch and Merge Request through Jazz Connector.

Proposal

In the Connector Panel, under Merge Request tab, add a option to create a new Merge Request (and branch) for this issue.

@mahmad123 Thank you for this feature request.

I think it's a good idea and it shouldn't be too difficult to implement. It could work similarly to how the "create issue" feature works.

Unfortunately, I don't have time to work on this at the moment, but this is open source, and we would welcome a contribution to implementing this feature.

Yeah, thats exactly what i was thinking. It should look very similar to Create Issue.
I would love to work on it, but i don't have access to Jazz development environment.

@mahmad123 Well if that is all that's stopping you then you are in luck because the Jazz-Community has a very well documented development environment that you can find here: https://github.com/jazz-community/jazz-debug-environment You can find full instructions of how to set up and use it in the wiki Feel free to open issues in that repository if you have any questions/problems when using it.

@MartinBenninger I didn't know that was possible. I will take a look at it next week and see what i can do on this. Stay tuned...
