Self-managed support extended to GitLab for Jira App

GitLab has enhanced its integration capabilities with Atlassian Jira by introducing the GitLab for Jira app, which supports both GitLab SaaS and GitLab Self-Managed, facilitating easier integration for various installation types. This collaboration aims to streamline the DevOps process by displaying key development metrics like merge requests and commits directly in the Jira Development Panel, thereby enhancing communication and reducing context-switching for developers. The integration allows for features such as issue transitioning from commits and the addition of time tracking through Smart Commits. As part of this initiative, support for Jira Cloud within the DVCS integration is being deprecated in favor of the GitLab for Jira app, which is now the recommended pathway for integrating Jira Cloud with GitLab. The configuration process is simplified through the Atlassian Marketplace, though it requires administrative roles in both Jira and GitLab for setup.
