                HOWTO: add ticket number from git branch to commits and PRs
              
          
    The problem: you want JIRA ticket number in commit descriptions and possibly in the PRs.
The solution: automate it.
Setup and usage:

In the repository place the prepare-commit-message.sh file from this gist at .git/hooks/prepare-commit-message (without .sh extension). chmod +x it.
Name branches like ECA-333/remove-all-shit-and-add-good-code.
Run git config --global commit.template=~/.gitmessage. Place gitmessage from this gist at ~/.gitmessage (don't forget the starting dot).
Use git commit and wait for the editor, don't git commit -m or gitx shennanigans to utilize it.
This way ECA-333 will be grabbed out and used: (A) in the commit header and (B) below the commit description, formatted markdown-ready as a link to our JIRA. Example commit message:


## time_qsort.py
from random import randint
import timeit
import sys


def qsort2(list):
    if list == []:
        return []
    else:
        pivot = list[0]
	from random import randint
	import timeit
	import sys


	def qsort2(list):
	if list == []:
	return []
	else:
	pivot = list[0]
