Create a Bitbucket hotfix branch from a changed task

Move urgent fixes from notes to a safe branch quickly.

Trigger

Task Details Changed

Triggers when a specific task's details change. This trigger monitors a single Google Task and fires when any of its details (title, notes, status, due date, completion, position) are modified.

Action

Create a branch

Creates a new branch in a bitbucket repository from a target commit hash; the branch name must be unique, adhere to bitbucket's naming conventions, and not include the 'refs/heads/' prefix.

Why this helps

Urgent work is delayed by branch setup and naming decisions.

  • Reduce hotfix startup time
  • Standardize urgent branch names
  • Keep the fix tied to its task

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Tasks and Bitbucket in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a uniquely named hotfix branch from the commit specified in the changed task.
  • 4Pick the Task Details Changed trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one urgent fix task.

Questions about this workflow

Can the branch name include the task id?

Yes. Include your naming convention in the instruction.

What if the commit is missing?

Notis should report the missing starting commit instead of guessing.
