Slack/Jira integration: How do I post comments to issues, from Slack?

[Chris]

In Slack, using the slash command `/jira`, how do I comment on an issue?  I would think it would be something like `/jira PROJ-12 My comment for the issue`

Hi Janna!

I'm not sure of what you meant by 'uploading the repository', as theoretically, it won't upload it to JIRA as JIRA is not a DVCS system. Anyway, the recommended way to do that is described on this document. By linking GitHub this way, JIRA will sync all the information related to commits and branches, but won't have the actual data stored in its database.

Let me know if you have any doubts on the procedure presented on the document linked above. 

Cheers!
