Multiple blocking approval rules https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/1979 is great, but they aren't always needed. For example, if a merge request is below a certain size maybe it can bypass review by a senior engineer. It would be great if approval rules could be conditionally enabled/disabled based on the contents of the merge request and labels applied.

Proposal

• Add the ability to make rules conditional on the number of lines changed

Note: code owners already provide a form of conditional approval based on filepath
