GIT – Commit message is missing a valid issue key solution

We can resolve this issue using below options,

Option 1:

Need to create a link between GIT commit <-> JIRA ticket, so include JIRA ticket ID into the commit message.
Example: If JIRA Ticket ID is “PAD-0707“, you commit message should like as below.

git commit -m "PAD-0707 Resolving GIT key issue"

Option 2:

Navigate to, Repository Settings > Links > Toggle the button to Off state. This will disable/omit the requirement of valid issue keys in commit messages.
