Filter the list of FishEye changesets displayed in the JIRA Project Activity Stream

Question

In JIRA 5.0's activity stream, it displays changesets as seen in FishEye. However, we see the same changeset activity stream for all our projects in JIRA, not just for the project we are currently viewing the summary page for.

We have a signle repository setup in FishEye. Each of our projects is a module within that single repository.

In the JIRA config for Repoisoty Path, we have added the proper subirectory for each project's code, such as:

http://fisheye-server:8060/browse/REPONAME/project_name/

However, this doesn't seem to properly filter the activity stream. Any ideas of how to only see the changesets for a particular project in the activity stream?

Hi Chris,

I think what's missing here is that you need to create an Entity Link between your JIRA projects and the FishEye repository.

If this does not help, another suggestion is to logically split your single repository into smaller ones, each one being a module.

For example, let's say that your current repository structure is like this:

HEAD
 |- Module1
 |- Module2
 |- Module3

In FishEye, you probably have only one repository added, like this:
Repository URL: (the URL that represents HEAD)
Path: empty

You could do something like this:
Repository 1:
Repository URL (the URL that represents HEAD)
Path: Module1

Repository 2:
Repository URL (the URL that represents HEAD)
Path: Module2

After logically splitting your single repository in FishEye, you can create Entity Links from each JIRA project to its corresponding repository.

Please, let me know if this helps.

Kind regards,
