    Problem

    Currently the main (frequent/important) actions of a merge request are scattered throughout the UI. This causes many problems:

    • Decreases feature discoverability
    • Increases time spent finding these frequent or important actions
    • Increases user's cognitive load
    • Relies more on user's memory than intuitiveness

    As an example, notice the current placement of the actions highlighted in red:

    Proposal

    We should try to consolidate all of the main (frequent/important) actions of a merge request in one single location of the UI, always accessible to the user.
