Greetings,
I added a new issue linking relationship to our issue tracker called "is
related to". Previously, only "duplicate" and "depends on" were
supported. However, sometimes issues are related, similar, or variants
worthy of their own issue. Rather than create numerous additional
relationships, I only created "is related to" for now.
Cheers,
Gavin
P.S. JIRA issue linking is directional, and each direction has its own
name. For example, "duplicates" vs. "is duplicated by". However, for
general-purpose "is related to", the relationship is identical in both
directions, but JIRA lists both in the drop down box (i.e. twice).
Please ignore this duplication.
