Is this open source to be sure that data is not being sent home? This extension works perfectly, but I have to rate it a 3 because the source is not readily available / there is no way to know its not sending content home. I mainly want this to link to JIRA from GitLab, and I don't need a random Chrome extension developer knowing all of our company inner source code. Happy to change to a 5 if source code can be provided.

Exactly what I needed.

This works well for me, except for one quirky behavior on Chrome OS that is actually pretty disruptive: If I'm typing out an issue tag in a text-input box, the moment when the plain text gets caught and edited into a link by the extension also seems to reset the placement of my cursor in the text box (it seems to almost always jump back to just before the start of the link). Is there a way to disable the auto-linking in text-input boxes? Or to have it add the link but but leave my cursor where it is?

It would be great to be able to decide whether links should always be opened in a new tab

I do like the plugin - BUT PROBLEM: I does not work for high issue values such as "CQ-4260316" - the last digit is being cut-off.

Does what we want! Only thing I could ask for is an option to open links in new tabs.

The only of this kind that I could find, however: 1. We use gitlab, but it unfortunately breaks the network graph and there's no way to exclude a page by wildcards like you can with userscripts. 2. The regex is case sensitive, and the only workaround is to do something like [tT][iI][cC][kK][eE][tT]-[0-9]+ which gets painful when you start to work with more projects. I ended up copying a chunk of the source code and making a personal userscript out of it.

Works like a charm, the only thing I miss is having name of the issue as tooltip for the link.
