Jira does not pick up branches in forked repositories until forced to check

After forking a repository in another project, when creating a branch from a JIRA issue the issue will not update anything under the development tab.

Steps to Recreate
1.) Fork a repository from another team project
2.) Create a new branch from a JIRA issue
3.) Observe the issue does not update its development section
4.) Create a commit on that new branch that links to the JIRA issue
5.) Observe the commit information populates the JIRA issue but the branch does not.

Smart Commits do not work in this scenario as well.
