Additional Information

Note I reference this doc update using "Approvers" > https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/search/#filtering-merge-requests-by-approvers-starter

There might be some confusion as to what's the difference between "Approvers" vs "Approved By". Details are outlined in this issue > #39042 (closed)

We also have a filter that suggests you can do this type of filter called: Approvers, but the name is misleading, as it will only list merge requests which the user is listed as a potential approver (either by being manually added to it, by its relationship in a group which is part of the approvers, or by it being listed in CODEOWNERS of an affected file).

That's why we will be updating "Approver" --> "Eligible Approver" in this issue > #216331 (closed)

Closes #39042 (closed)
