Description

We have GitHub for Jira installed in our cloud Jira, and it correctly shows GitHub commits that match the Jira ID in the **Commits** section. We take release branches weekly and we'd like to be able to see which release branch a Jira's commits are in too, but nothing appears in the **Branches** section. From the documentation I understand that "Branches are linked automatically if the issue key is included in the branch name".

Manually adding all the Jira numbers to a branch name would be impractical.

It would be great if all branches matching a commit were shown in this area. (Though I guess for old commits there will be many such branches, so some kind of ordering/filtering would be necessary.)

(I get that I can do this on the git command line using `git branch --contains`, I am just hoping for an easier answer.)

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named, and the repository is marked deprecated and moved to a private repository. First verify whether this request is still actionable and inspect how GitHub-for-Jira currently associates commits and branches; completion would show relevant release branches for a Jira-linked commit with an agreed ordering or filtering rule.
