As seen above, I am prompted to merge unverified changes even though I'm not asking it to merge unverified changes. I'm asking it to auto-merge if-and-when all necessary verification has been done.
Order of operations:
* Push branch A to GitLab
* Create MR `#1` targeting A to the default branch
* Push branch B to GitLab
* Create MR `#2` targeting A to B
* After code review and a successful pipeline, land MR `#1`
* MR `#2` is automatically updated to target the default branch
* Trigger a pipeline run by clicking "Run pipeline"
* Click "set to auto-merge"
* A dialog appears saying "Merge unverified changes?"
This has happened twice today, so it is not a fluke.
