Configure default names for branches created from issues
Release notes
You can now define a name template for branches created from issues. Previously, it was set to {issue ID}-{issue-title-hyphenated}, which continues to be the default. To define your own template go to Repository Settings > Branch defaults.
Description
Problem:
Currently, the "Create Merge Request" only supports the default issue template of {issue number}-{issue-name-hyphenated}
The creation of branches has become a heavily utilized feature for us, but we are unable to change the default template for branch creation, and we use the convention of {project acronym}-{issue number} for our projects, e.g. SP-3
Proposal
In the project configuration screen, add an option for the default template for branch creation, including injectable parameters for issue name, issue number, and hard-coded strings or text.
