TRUST SIGNALS
Key highlights of the appEnforce commit standards, Jira traceability, and pull request rules automatically — before AI-generated code breaks your process

Enforce commit standards across the organization
Enforce commit message formats, required Jira links, branch naming, Pull Request title, and description automatically, across repositories. No relying on developer discipline at scale.
Easy change control, fast code reviews & audits
Every code change linked to a Jira work item. Every commit auditable. When your team ships faster with AI coding tools, your governance needs to keep up automatically, not manually.
💡 How?
For Bitbucket Cloud, GitHub Cloud and GitLab Cloud
Better Commit Policy securely connects your Jira Cloud with cloud-hosted Git workspaces, enforcing commit checks before non-compliant code enters the repository.
Prevention, not detection.

More details
Better Commit Policy checks every commit, branch, and pull request against rules you define in Jira. Non-compliant changes are blocked before they enter the repository.
As AI coding tools increase commit volume, automated governance isn't optional. It's the only approach that scales.
