Comments are only allowed on file level. ### What is the expected *correct* behavior? Comments for the whole merge request. ### Problem to solve Sometimes I want to comment something of a merge request that is not related to a specific file. ### Intended users * Sasha (Software Developer) * Delaney (Development Team Lead) ### Further details * comment on file and directory structure * comment about missing files * comment on issues related to many files, that would have to be redundant or incomplete otherwise ### Proposal Add a possibility to add top-level comments for a merge request. ### Permissions and Security Same as for existing comments. ### Testing Same as for existing comment feature. ### What does success look like, and how can we measure that? It is possible to write top-level comments for a merge request. ### Links / references
