Is there a way to link development branches into Jira from GitHub without creating one from the story?
Use case: syncing OS libraries that use GitHub to Jira.
Hopeful behavior: in GitHub, if you start a merge request with a JIRA project key in the title of the merge request [abc-123], the integration automatically links the merge request to the Jira ticket called out in the title of the MR.
Are there any shortcuts in the Exalate GitHub <> Jira integration/Configuration that would enable behavior like this for engineers?

Hi,
At this moment, Exalate does not support synchronization for merge requests or development branches. Also, you may review the below documentation to check GitHub fields and entities available for synchronization.
