Cannot disable Start Merge Train
Summary
We have a few issues reported by multiple GitLab.com users (Silver+) related to Merge Trains:
-
Start Merge Train
button present on MR in spite of the setting not being enabled - The setting within project>settings is no longer present
- When the user clicks the start merge train button, it says the MR has been added to the train at position 1 - However, no pipelines are started. When refreshing the MR page, the MR is no longer in the merge train and the button returns to 'Start Merge Train'.
Workaround No.1 (Recommended)
Merge the merge request with "Merge Immediately" button.
workaround No.2 (Unrecommended)
There is a workaround brings back the original merge controls. By disabling Merge pipelines will try to validate the post-merge result prior to merging in Merge Options it will bring back the standard green Merge
button on the MR.
