If you have FishEye installed you can use smart commits to trigger various actions from a single commit.

Here is what you need to do to enable 'smart commits':

Then, the syntax to use in the commit messages:

<ISSUE_KEY> #<CMD> <optional CMD_PARAMETERS>

Example:

JRA-123 #resolve

Does anyone know if it's possible to change the status of a Jira issue using a Git commit? I am using Jira and Git with the Jira Git plugin and I know I can reference an issue by just adding the name in the commit but I thought a commit message like "ISSUE-1 #close" would set the status to closed. But this doesn't seem to work.

Am I doing something wrong or is it not possible to send commands via the commit message?

But can you use smart commits with Atlassian stash git repos? From what I read you can't

That's correct. You need fisheye to enable smart commits. Please vote on jira.atlassian.com/browse/STASH-2490. It carries already 266 votes, hopefully atlassian will listen.

But this only works for cloud versions of Jira, right?

Well, Atlassian documents mention 'Jira Software'. So I am sure it should work with both In-premise and cloud versions of Jira.
