I built Jitly because I was tired of the daily back and forth between Jira and my terminal.
Every time I picked up a ticket I had to:
• Copy the ticket ID from Jira
• Go to terminal and create a branch (hoping I got the naming right)
• After finishing work, remember to update the ticket status manually
• Then at standup try to remember what I actually worked on
Jitly makes this much easier:
• jitly start ABC-123 sets up the branch and moves the ticket to In Progress
• jitly done commits, pushes and lets you update the ticket status
• jitly standup gives you a ready standup message from your git commits
It supports SSO, API tokens, custom branch naming, and works on Mac, Windows, Linux.
I want to make it useful for real teams, so if you have any questions or if your workflow is a bit different (special branch rules, different Jira statuses, etc.), please tell me. I’ll try to make it work for you.
Happy to answer anything!
