      Current Situation

      When creating a branch in git called e.g. "feature/PRJX-123" and pushing that to GitHub then the issue is properly displayed in the JIRA development tab.
      But if the branch is called with lower case characters e.g. "feature/prjx-123" this will not be recognized by the JIRA DVCS plugin.

      Requested Change

      The DVCS plugin shall be configurable that it can accept issues case insensitive, so that it accepts e.g. "PRJX-123" and "prjx-123" to be linked to the JIRA issue "PRJX-123".

      Use Case

      Due to users working on Windows we've had a lot of problems with git branch names if they differ only in case. Therefore a GitHub pre-receive hook shall allow only lower case branch names, but this is in contradiction to use JIRA issue numbers as branch names.
