How to Link GitHub and Bitbucket Commits to Asana Tasks

Code lives in Git, context lives in Asana

Engineers work in Git. Project managers and stakeholders work in Asana. Keeping the two in sync by hand is tedious and easy to forget, so the people who care about progress end up asking for status updates that the commit history already contains.

Linking commits to tasks closes that gap. When a developer references a task in a commit message, that activity shows up on the task itself, where everyone can see it.

How it works

Astogi's Git commit tracking integration connects your GitHub or Bitbucket repository to Asana. When a commit message contains an Asana task number, Astogi posts the commit to the matching task. Reviewers and stakeholders see progress in Asana without opening the repository.

This works best alongside automatic task numbering, which gives every task the short number you reference in your commits.

Setting it up

1. Sign in to Astogi and open the Repositories section of your dashboard.
2. Connect your GitHub or Bitbucket account and pick the repository to track.
3. Reference an Asana task number in your commit messages.
4. Astogi posts each matching commit to the right task.

Why teams use it

• Non-technical stakeholders see real progress without learning Git.
• The task history becomes a single source of truth for what shipped.
• Code review and project tracking stop drifting apart.

Astogi supports GitHub and Bitbucket today. For the full setup details, see the Git commit tracking page. If you use a provider we do not support yet, tell us on the custom integration page.
