Overview: I am running a JIRA plugin on my Hudson server that interfaces with SVN commit logs.
Issue: Currently, whenever code is committed to SVN, the commit comment is automatically appended to a related JIRA issue using a single global JIRA account. This results in the true author of the commit not being properly recognized.
Question: Is it possible to adjust the configuration so that commit comments display the actual user who made the commit instead of a default global user?
i think its possble to adjust the config. try looking in the svnplugin settings for commit attribute mapping, or update to a newer version that supports authorship recognition. might work if you target the commit properties directly.
In my experience, it is indeed achievable to have commit comments reflect the actual user rather than a global JIRA account. I encountered a similar scenario where the default settings did not pick up the commit author. The solution involved adjusting the configuration of the SVN plugin to ensure it recognized the commit properties correctly and mapping those to the appropriate user profile in JIRA. A systematic review of device logs helped me pinpoint the necessary adjustments, and updating to a compatible plugin version was also a crucial step, which ultimately resolved the issue.
Based on my own experience while dealing with a similar integration, it is indeed feasible to have the commit author correctly reflected in JIRA. I discovered that enhancing the configuration settings within the Hudson integration and ensuring that the SVN commit properties are accurately mapped to individual JIRA user accounts resolved the issue. I made sure that my Hudson plugin was updated to the latest version and double-checked the commit attribute mapping. This adjustment in the configuration allowed my system to correctly identify and display the actual user responsible for the commit, streamlining the workflow.
