This extension is intended for developers who log their time using Timesheets by Tempo on Jira Cloud.
Timesheets by Tempo lets you log your time faster in Jira by using your GitHub activity to provide suggestions in Timesheets.
When you commit or checkout with git, the Tempo Time Tracking Extension posts an event to the Tempo API containing the current branch name and timestamp. If you commit files, a commit message is also posted.
This activity feed records the time you spend on coding activities and any changes made to files in your git repositories, leading to better suggestions for logging time in Tempo Timesheets.
We recommend including an issue key in the branch name or the commit message.
