No Link to Issue from Merge Request page

Summary

Merge Request page contains no link back to the Issue if you are not closing the issue. The only link back to an Issue is in the description of the merge request if you happen to be using the automatic close command. Sometimes you may have multiple branches from an issue and you do not want to close the issue.

Steps to reproduce

  • Push code to a branch
  • Start creation of a merge request
  • Edit the description to remove the 'Close #123 (closed)'
  • Create the merge request

What is the current bug behavior?

Makes working with merge requests more hassle than it should be.

What is the expected correct behavior?

Always have a link back to the related issue.
