hasLinks()

Description:

Searches issues with / without issue links, additionally you can further refine your query by using a number expression.
See also: linkedIssuesOf() and hasRemoteLinks()

Note:

A 'number expression' is made of an optional operator representing by its mathematical symbol and a (prositive/negative) number.

By default, this function only includes issues with at least one remote link even if you use the '<' or '<=' operator.
You must explicity add 'issues NOT IN hasRemoteLinks()' clause to your query, if you also want to search for issues without remote links.
