Pivotal Tracker Git integration with ease

Posted on Apr 17, 2012

This post makes 2 assumptions

  1. You are working with Git
  2. You are working with Pivotal Tracker

At Gogobot, we work with Pivotal Tracker (for various reasons).

Pivotal Tracker has very good Git integration, when you commit (and push), the commits can show up as comments to the story.

Another very good thing is that you can change the status of a story just by a commit, you can finish, deliver or anything else you might want.

Usually, you need to add the story id (#12123123) to the commit message yourself, obviously, I never remember to do that.

So, the link in the bottom is a gem that integrates git with Pivotal Tracker very easily and effortlessly.

It has a very good README so keep on reading there.
