    • Type: Improvement
    • Resolution: Unresolved
    • Priority: Major
    • Component/s: git-plugin
    • Environment:
      Linux Ubuntu 3.2.0-58-generic x86_64
      Jenkins ver. 1.546
      Git Plugin 2.0
      Git server plugin 1.3
      Jenkins GIT client plugin 1.6.2

      I am using the "automatic merging" functionality as described here: "Using Git, Jenkins and pre-build branch merging" ( https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Git+Plugin#GitPlugin-AdvancedFeatures ). The merging is working well. What I wanted is to have some readable information about which two branches are integratet within a commited merge result. The current comments look like:

      "Merge commit '6cb5a448d66ab30aca2257123e7c0396fa9fddac' into HEAD"

      I would be very useful if more informative commit/push comments could be written like:

      "Merged branch 'release/2.4.7' into branch 'develop'. Merge commit '6cb5a448d66ab30aca2257123e7c0396fa9f8dac' into HEAD"

      I have not found any customize functionality for this. And using the tag function for this would be an overhead, since "tons" of tags would be created.

      Regards
