How can I limit notifications to only comments?

[Simon Featherstone]

I am watching a large number of issues that I receive notifications for. I am not at all interested when a developer adds a work log so I would like to be able to turn that off but still receive a notification when a comment is made on the issue.

Is there a way to filter the type of update to the issue that I am sent a notification?

Hi Brian, due to imports only working with exact same source and target versions I don't think you'd be able to import directly, but would need to install a fresh version of 4.4.4, import into that and then upgrade to 5 rc 3. I've not tried with these specific versions, but that would be my assumption based on previous experience with export/import. Andrew.

Yeah, I am currently playing around with Jira 5 RC3 on a complete, non-production test setup. I initially did just that, install clean 4.4.4, backup-> restore from production 4.4.4 -> test 4.4.4, then upgraded to 5.0RC3, and getting all kinds of errors/issues. Before I chase those down, wanted to see other upgrade options.
