Busy MR widget makes it hard to check out a branch after looking at activity
Problem
The branch name and check out branch buttons are hard to find because of an overwhelming merge request widget.
It is especially hard to find after adding some initial review comments, since it becomes necessary to scroll up past lots of irrelevant information. The vertical space used by the widget can mean it is off screen or covered by a flash message in it's current location. On the other hand this does make it easier to find when starting at the top of the page.
Example
In the below screenshot I was scrolling up to look for the the check out branch button or branch name. I got frustrated around this point, but would have found it if I continued scrolling up further.
