merge request .patch and .diff links get hyperlinked unexpectedly
so, there's some (undocumented?) feature that likely came from github, that if you append .patch
or .diff
to merge request url you can download the changes of each commit suitable for git am
or just differences from base branch as single chunk.
however, if you paste such link to commenting area, it makes only merge request as link:
the expected outcome is to at least include .patch
or .diff
in link as well
for example existing extra links are rendered as:
- diffs: gitlab-foss!28202 (diffs)
- pipelines: gitlab-foss!28202 (merged)
- commits: gitlab-foss!28202 (commits)
note pipelines
handled differently than diffs
and commits
and i think should be also displayed as pipelines: !28202 (pipelines)
