Should I be able to see the commit comment in an Issue that had the commit key in the comment?

Question

I'm evaluating a server installation of JIRA with FishEye with an Subversion repository.

I am trying to get the commit comments, which contain an Issue key, to show up in the JIRA Issue Activities view. Is this something that should work?

I do see the commit message associated with the issue in FishEye when I browse the repository, But nothing shows up in the JIRA Issue Activity tab.

I have the application links configured and tested both ways between FishEye and JIRA.

Thanks, John

Hi @John Maddalozzo - Welcome to Community! :)

Yes that should be working fine (if everything is correctly set up). This is the official description:

For FishEye 3.3 and later, the FishEye repository commits related to a JIRA Software issue are summarized in the Development panel for the issue, when JIRA Software and FishEye are connected with an application link. You can click the commits link to see detailed information such as who made each commit, when they commited, and how many files were changed. Click through to see a particular commit in the FishEye instance where the commit was made. A developer only needs to add the issue key to the commit message for that commit to be automatically linked to the JIRA Software issue.

Please tell me do you see the Development Panel on the right side when viewing an issue and if so what do you see there? (Screenshot might be helpful :) )
