This is expected behavior if you do not edit the commit message before clicking Merge. Requesting that the checkbox be checked by default and as an added bonus, the push rules are shown as a reference. ### Steps to reproduce 1. Configure push rules in **Settings** -> **Repository** -> **Push rules** -> **Require expression in commit messages** (ex: `(add|remove).*`) 2. Create new merge request and set title to _not_ match the push rules 3. Attempting to merge throws an error ### Example Project https://gitlab.com/mbadeau/zd-393540 ### What is the current *bug* behavior? If the MR title does not match the push rules, it will fail to merge. ### What is the expected *correct* behavior? MR title should not affect push rules and should only take on the name of the current branch and not the MR branch name ### Relevant logs and/or screenshots  (sorry for tiny video) ### Output of checks <!-- If you are reporting a bug on GitLab.com, uncomment below --> This bug happens on GitLab.com ### Possible fixes <!-- If you can, link to the line of code that might be responsible for the problem. -->
