Run merge request pipeline positioning
What’s this issue all about?
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/65940 intends to implement a solution to satisfy the following need statement:
The user needs a way to re-run a merge request pipeline so that they can recreate a pipeline with the latest master (target branch).
As for the why:
It's useful when they want to check if their MR does not break master even though the MR has not been updated for a long time.
The solution currently proposed is:
- Introduce button similar to pipeline list, which immediately starts a new pipeline in the merge request context with merge request ref either attached/detached depending on the state of the merge request.
