Jira smart commits on side branches?

Question

I tried using Jira smart commits on our Jira+Bitbucket setup, trying to get it to resolve issues once fixes are pushed.

The problem is that once the commit is pushed to a side branch (not master, since it is important to run a CI pipeline on it first) -- the issue gets resolved immediately.

This is a rather strange default behavior, as all other implementations for automatic issue closing I've seen only perform the action once the commit hits a "finalized" branch -- otherwise one would be exposed to the possibility of forgetting to merge or removing the change altogether...

Is there a way around this behavior? Can I make the smart commit action(s) apply only when the fix lands in a certain branch?

That doesn't solve the issue at all, as it doesn't describe how to control which branches trigger the smart actions... Unless I'm missing something?
