Epics can have Assignees
Problem to solve
As a user planning work prior to any issues or MRs existing,
I need to be able to find and manage epics I am responsible for,
So I can easily move an epic through my workflow
Intended users
Proposal
Enable epics to have assignees like Issues and MRs
- assignee via epic side bar
- way to access/view "my epics" (like issue/mr lists)
- allow for bulk edit on epic list
- allow for filtering against assignee on epic boards and epic lists
Further details
As we move to launch Epic/Program Boards &2864 we will be enabling users to work epics through a workflow just like issues. Assignment is a key part of common workflows involving epics, especially prior to individual issues being created and assigned.
Product, Eng Managers, and Program Managers will need to assignee themselves to epics they are responsible for, and easily access them.
Permissions and Security
Same as epics in GitLab Premium and GitLab Ultimate
