Optional merge request approvals do not send email notifications
Summary
#27426 (closed) introduced the optional approve button for the GitLab Core edition. However approve action does not send any e-mail notifications or todo-list item unlike the approvals on the Gitlab EE.
It would be nice to be able to receive the notifications in form of either email or todo list item.
Steps to reproduce
- Have a Gitlab CE installation
- Start a merge request
- Approve it
What is the current bug behavior?
- No email or to-do item is created which means I don't know at all when reviewer approves my change unless I visit it.
What is the expected correct behavior?
- I get email notification that merge request xyz was approved
