Smart Commit Messages for Rally

Whenever you commit a new change into your XP-Dev.com repository, all you have to do is reference a Rally artifact in your commit message.

For e.g. the commit message US3, US5 this is just a comment will add a changeset to the Rally user stories US3 and US5.

Rally Example

Additionally, you can get XP-Dev.com to complete stories and tasks, as well as mark defects as resolved:

For e.g. the commit message a nice change to close US3 will add a changeset to story US3 and mark it as completed.
