^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
*WARNING:* There are new plugins for the integration with Bugzilla,
Jira and IBM Rational Team Concert:

* link:https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/#/admin/projects/plugins/its-jira[plugins/its-jira]
* link:https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/#/admin/projects/plugins/its-rtc[plugins/its-rtc]
The old plugins (`plugins/hooks-bugzilla`, `plugins/hooks-jira` and
`plugins/hooks-rtc`) are deprecated with Gerrit 2.9.
The new issue tracker system plugins have a common base which is
link:https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/#/admin/projects/plugins/its-base[plugins/its-base].
The configuration of the new plugins is slightly different than the
configuration of the old plugins because they use different section
names in the Gerrit configuration. For easy migration the new plugins
have an init step that allows to take over the configuration from the
old plugins during the Gerrit initialization phase.
New Features:
* The issue tracker integration can be enabled/disabled per project.
* Parent projects can enforce the issue tracker integration for their
child projects.
* It can be configured for which branches of a project the issue
tracker integration is enabled.
* Whether the issue tracker integration is enabled/disabled for a
project can be changed from the ProjectInfoScreen in the Gerrit
WebUI.
