Issue Navigation
for Windows and Linux
for macOS
Ctrl+Alt+S
Use this dialog to create a list of the so-called issue navigation patterns. An issue navigation pattern maps an issue ID pattern in commit messages with the URL addresses of the referenced issues. This enables you to navigate from committed changes to issues related to these changes. As soon as IntelliJ IDEA encounters a match to the issue ID pattern in a commit message, the match is displayed as a link in the Version Control tool window. If you mention several issues, all of them will be displayed as links. Clicking such link opens the matching issue in the default browser.
