Hi, 

I'd like to remove the 'jira-plugin' component from Jira in favor of reporting all issues on Github Issues:

Is there a preferred approach to do this (apart from changing the pom.xml scm settings)? 

Thanks,
Radek

https://github.com/jenkins-infra/repository-permissions-updater#managing-issue-trackers explains how to define issue trackers for your plugin in its metadata. This controls the plugins.jenkins.io sidepanel links, as well as links from the plugin manager inside Jenkins.

I would discourage removal of the Jira component, given historical issues exist, unless you've migrated all of them, including comments etc. Even if no new issues are reported, their existence (and grouping by component) can occasionally be useful in the future.

Raise a help desk issue asking for the component to be archived. That will stop new issues from being raised there but preserve existing ones.

(You can also migrate them if you wish)

Thanks Tim, is there any migration script available already somewhere that I can run myself on selected JQL or one-by-one?

Hi Radek


This is the document that I was using when testing it with Jenkins core: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1urTCIXbcgZ06zBZHD4l9os3MhHTrIXXTunW7WDbYPpk/edit?tab=t.0

The script has been used to migrate quite a few repositories but it hasn't been done in awhile as far as I know.

Cheers
Tim

Thanks Tim, I used your write-up and migrated all unresolved issues in a flash!
