I am using JIRA Cli from Bob Swift. When i try to clone a project with cloneProject it succeeds but i expected the issuenumbers to be the same in the cloned project. Is this possible? Can Bob Swift answer if he's around? =)
eg:
java -jar jira-cli/lib/jira-cli-5.5.0.jar --server $JIRA_SERVER --user $JIRA_USER --password $JIRA_PASSWORD \
--action cloneProject --project $PROJECTKEY --toProject $NEW_PROJECTKEY --name "$NEW_PROJECTNAME" --cloneIssues \
--continue --verbose
now FOO-1 is not the same issue as BAR-1, FOO-2 is not the same issue as BAR-2 and so forth.
Edit: The original project had lots of subtasks which are now deleted so FOO-2 to FOO-6 does not exist, so the skew appears whenever a issuekey is not avaible in sequence in the first project.
eg.
FOO-1 > BAR-1
FOO-2 to FOO-6 does not exist so FOO-7 is then BAR-2..
No, not without doing additional scripting to fill in holes in the number sequence. I have done this as part of a migration many years ago. It is pretty straight forward. The logic is something like the following assuming the target project does not have issues:

Hi, thanks for your answer. Perhaps you can help once again
The source of the problem i'm trying to get around is that cloneProject (and i assume cloneIssue) does not copy the issue (entity) properties. We are using issue-checklist plugin that stores its data in issue/${issue}/properties/cachedchecklist but i have not found any way to make jira-cli include these properties upon cloning.
Is there something i have overlooked?

Marcel, clone issue does not copy properties yet. I opened JCLI-1032 to track this request. Thanks for the requirement.
