Merge requests not updated after a force push on branch created on 8.x before update to 9.0.4

Like the closed issue #6059 (closed), after force pushing on an existing branch linked to a MR created from Gitlab CE 8.x, the change view is not updated and the change view show the commit referenced by the previous hash.

How to produce :

  • Have Gitlab from 8.x
  • Create a repo + commit on master + create feature branch and commit on it
  • Create a MR from feature branch to master
  • Optional : Add a new commit to master
  • Update Gitlab from 8.x to 9.0.4
  • Amend and rebase your commit from feature branch
  • Force push your branch to apply changes
  • Go on Gitlab, on your MR, the changes are not updated

Note : on message from Gitlab hook (when force push from developer environment), there is no MR informations.
