We have a custom field "branch" which is supposed to tell our engineers where to push a commit. The problem is that sometimes the fixVersion field gets updated and the branch field does not, so that they now disagree.
Is there a way to write custom verification code that would be run whenever a change was saved in Jira? It would snarf up a mapping of branch to fixVersion and verify that the two were compatible.
Even better, would be to make the fixVersion field read-only to most users and set the fixVersion automatically whenever the branch field was set.
If this could be done, are there people who would implement this for me and what would be the approximate cost? I am running 7.3.6 now, but I plan to upgrade soon.
