Changelog.md entries have incorrect links to merge requests following move to gitlab-foss
(My apologizes if this issue has already been reported. I tried searching for it but simply got too many results when searching for words like changelog
and/or merge requests
).
Problem to solve
The automatic https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md entries generated by the bots for each release based on the https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/tree/master/changelogs entries appears to create links to incorrect merge requests following the move of gitlab-ce to "gitlab-foss".
See for instance:
12.4.2
Fixed (10 changes)
- Increase timeout for FetchInternalRemote RPC call. !18908 (merged)
(which here automatically links to !18908 (merged) but for the actual CHANGELOG.md file links to gitlab-foss!18908 (merged))
Proposal
Change the writing of the CHANGELOG.md entries so that they link (in the gitlab-foss CHANGELOG.md) not to the merge requests in the project gitlab-foss but instead to the correct corresponding gitlab merge requests.
