Problem Statement

Users often miss to include the Jira work item key in their initial commit messages. Enforcing this via pre-commit hooks can disrupt CI/CD pipelines. Since rewriting commit history (rebase/amend) is complex and impractical for pushed commits, there is no easy way to retroactively link these commits to Jira.

Suggested Solution

Allow Jira to listen for new tags or comments on a commit. If a tag or comment contains a valid Jira issue key, the integration should trigger a sync and link that commit to the corresponding Jira work item's development panel.
