Setting commit status on MRs from other repos fails with 404
Current status 2022-08-04
This issue has not had recent interaction, before close it we want to validate this bug is still happening on gitlab.com or the latest stable release.
Problem to solve
When my build system builds a MR from another repo I'm unable to update the build status in the MR. GitLab responds with 404 which kinda make sense as the commits are not really in the repo yet, I suppose. But how is it supposed to work? I can't find any documentation explaining this. Should some other API be used for these cases?
It works perfectly fine if it's a merge-request from the same repo.
I've included the failing POST and the original merge_request-webhook below:
Thanks, Andreas
