I want to search for a number of issues but where they have been cloned I only want the issue to return once.

You can search using the clone prefix. I think this would be the easiest way

summary ~ "CLONE -"

Unless you're looking for the "parent" or "cloned from" issue which seems a bit more difficult for me.

Thanks - I had thought of that - but a text field is prone to user changes and I was hoping for a way to use the relationship "clones" or "cloned by" which I think would be more robust.

Yeah, I was looking around for anything but it all appears to need a plugin
