Cannot change default branch
Does anyone know how to change the default branch a feature branch is created from when clicking the Create Branch button in a Jira Issue?
All feature branches should be created off of develop (as per GitFlow "standard"), but the dialog defaults to master. This is in Jira 7.13 and Bitbucket 6.2
I have the default Development branch set to develop in the repo's settings:
I also tested this on the latest versions of Bitbucket Server DC (6.3.1) and Jira Server (8.2.1) but it still defaults to master:
We want to prevent developers from accidentally creating feature branches off of the master branch.

An acceptable workaround is to set the Default branch to develop in the Repository's settings.
The developer just has to be aware that a default clone points to the develop instead of the master branch.
