Is there any way to get the Jira Commit Acceptance plugin to work with Jira 6.1.6?

Rob Horan

We are planning to upgrade Jira and it doesn't seem to make sense to upgrade from an obsolete version to an obsolete version. Unfortunately the commit acceptance plugin has not been updated in nearly two years. Is there a way to get it to work with the latest version of Jira, and if not, is there an alternative available?

After a detailed research we could enable plugin in version 6.1.5. We copied plugin file (commitacceptance-1.6.0.jar) into the folders listed below: -Atlassian\JIRA\atlassian-jira\WEB-INF\lib -Atlassian\Application Data\JIRA\plugins\installed-plugins

I would try this on your test system. It is like installing a version 1 plugin.

Depending on your needs, you could write the same thing without any additional code on the Jira side at all. You can use the Jira REST API from within your perl/python client script to check for if the issue key is valid or has the proper status.
