Report of moved issues and merge requests not working properly
The original plan was to move milestones when it has been closed, and that is what we are planning for as a feature in GitLab.
Please read the actual use case of this behavior Allow bulk carry-forward of remaining open merge requests & issues to another milestone when closing a milestone
The current implementation is not working properly. See:
- gitlab-org/gitlab-qa#418 (closed)
- gitlab-org/gitlab-qa#419 (closed)
- gitlab-org/gitlab#34388 (closed)

The report issue was created, stating that we move the issues and MRs to the same milestone but we also labelled it as missed in that milestone.
In addition, I was not made aware of this change !277 (merged) we shouldn't move things when milestone expires but only label them. We should only move them after we close out the milestone so that the burndown chart in milestones works as expected. We require that the issues are open to visualize the remaining work.
