Yes, there is a way to do bulk updates to jira, if you have admin privileges in Jira (which you should have). Once you search for issues in jira with a criteria, in the search result page, you will see a drop down under tools in top right side of the page. That has a bulk update option.
Yes, I think we should update the fix version of jiras in a branch, as soon as the merge happens. Otherwise its hard to figure out what release has the fixes.
