Overview of the Git adapter

The Rational® Adapter for Git allows you to link Rational Team Concert™ change requests and Git commits or Gerrit changes.

With IBM® Rational Adapter for Git you can link Git commits and Gerrit changes with Rational Team Concert work items. This feature provides traceability for developers and other project stakeholders to track progress for a work item. Links are viewable from the Rational Team Concert work item and from the associated change in Gitweb or Gerrit.

Developers can continue to use their preferred Git client, such as EGit or command line, to commit and push their source code changes. Git adapter hooks configured in the team's shared Git repositories automatically establish links to Rational Team Concert work items that are referenced in the developer's commit message, such as Fixing NullPointerException for bug 57. No installation or configuration is necessary in the individual developer's environment.
