Enforce commit standards across the organization

Implement commit message standards by validating message format, linked work items, branch, and author.

Require pull requests to meet title and description rules before merging.

💡 What commit rules are supported?

Easy change control, fast code reviews & audits

Ensure every code change follows your commit conventions and complies with regulations.

Enforce traceability between commits and Jira work items — so every commit tells the whole story.

💡 How?

For Bitbucket Cloud, GitHub Cloud and GitLab Cloud

Better Commit Policy securely connects your Jira Cloud site with cloud-hosted Git workspaces, enabling fast, rigorous, policy-based commit checks.

Built to work where you already code.

More details

Better Commit Policy checks commits, branches, and pull requests against a set of rules in your Version Control System. These rules can enforce commit message formats, Jira work item references, or committer verification. If a change violates the commit policy, the pull request is blocked.
