Hi Marlon, I like this idea, but practically its bit difficult to get stick in to that rule of creating Jira before start working on it or creating jira before the commit :)
+1 for this which will help to go in right way from the beginning! I have done number of commits without creating Jiras if its very good issue to report then I used to create Jiras.
