# Issue closing pattern **(FREE SELF)**
NOTE:
This page explains how an administrator can configure issue closing patterns.
For user documentation about the feature, see
[Closing issues automatically](../user/project/issues/managing_issues.md#closing-issues-automatically).
When a commit or merge request resolves one or more issues, it is possible to
automatically close these issues when the commit or merge request lands
in the project's default branch.
## Change the issue closing pattern
The [default issue closing pattern](../user/project/issues/managing_issues.md#default-closing-pattern)
covers a wide range of words. You can change the pattern to suit your needs.
NOTE:
To test the issue closing pattern, use <https://rubular.com>.
However, Rubular doesn't understand `%{issue_ref}`. When testing your patterns,
replace this string with `#\d+`, which matches only local issue references like `#123`.
To change the default issue closing pattern:
::Tabs
:::TabTitle Linux package (Omnibus)
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and change the `gitlab_rails['gitlab_issue_closing_pattern']`
value:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['gitlab_issue_closing_pattern'] = /<regular_expression>/.source
```
1. Save the file and reconfigure GitLab:
```shell
sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
```
:::TabTitle Helm chart (Kubernetes)
1. Export the Helm values:
```shell
helm get values gitlab > gitlab_values.yaml
```
1. Edit `gitlab_values.yaml` and change the `issueClosingPattern` value:
```yaml
global:
appConfig:
issueClosingPattern: "<regular_expression>"
```
1. Save the file and apply the new values:
```shell
helm upgrade -f gitlab_values.yaml gitlab gitlab/gitlab
```
:::TabTitle Docker
1. Edit `docker-compose.yml` and change the `gitlab_rails['gitlab_issue_closing_pattern']`
value:
```yaml
version: "3.6"
services:
gitlab:
environment:
GITLAB_OMNIBUS_CONFIG: |
gitlab_rails['gitlab_issue_closing_pattern'] = /<regular_expression>/.source
```
1. Save the file and restart GitLab:
```shell

```
:::TabTitle Self-compiled (source)
1. Edit `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml` and change the `issue_closing_pattern` value:
```yaml
