Linear
About the integration
This integration enables Sleuth to use Linear as a deployment issue tracker. When you deploy, Sleuth will automatically connect your Linear issues to the deploys, so you can always find the source of your changes later.
Integration with Linear is made at the Sleuth organization level. More than one issue tracker can be integrated with an organization. Although you can have multiple projects within an organization, each project can only be configured to use a single issue tracker.
Once Linear is configured as an issue tracker, every time the Linear issue key is included in a deploy's commit message, Sleuth will automatically link that deploy with the corresponding issue in Linear.
