workon

JIRA / Gitflow Tool to:

• checkout a new branch from the current branch (e.g. git workon TEAM-1234/part1 ➡️ feature/TEAM-1234/part1)
• assign the corresponding JIRA Issue to yourself
• move the corresponding JIRA Issue to In Progress status

By default, the branch name will be prefixed with feature/, but this can be overridden by setting the GIT_WORKON_PREFIX environment variable to something else. You can even set it to the empty string to have no prefix.

So for example, if you run:

git workon TEAM-1234

It will:

• perform a git checkout -b feature/TEAM-1234
• assign TEAM-1234 issue to you
• set TEAM-1234 to "In Progress" status

You can also add a free form suffix like:

git workon TEAM-1234/part2

It will:

• perform a git checkout -b feature/TEAM-1234/part2
• assign TEAM-1234 issue to you (if it is not already)
• set TEAM-1234 to "In Progress" status (if is not already in that status)
