Git Branch Name Generator for Jira Issues
The Git Branch Name Generator is a Chrome add-on developed by christian.sarnataro. This free tool falls under the Browsers category, specifically the Add-ons & Tools subcategory. Its purpose is to generate a name for a git branch based on the Jira Issue being viewed in the browser.
The generated branch name is derived from the project key, ticket number, and ticket title. For example, if the project name is "Web Platform" and the project key is "WP", and the ticket number is 2 with the title "Add logout button", the generated branch name would be "wp-2-add-logout-button".
Additionally, the tool allows for the inclusion of company-specific prefixes, such as the author's name, which would result in a branch name like "my-username/wp-2-add-logout-button". It also supports specifying the type of ticket (feature, fix, etc) following the "Conventional Commit" naming conventions, resulting in a branch name like "feat/wp-2-add-logout-button".
