Do you have to comment on changes in GitLab?
When you’re reviewing changes, you may want to summarize your feedback, or comment on something unrelated to the specific changes. Reviews in GitLab only allowed commenting on the changes or replying to existing comments, which meant that other kinds of comments had to be made after submitting the review.
What happens when developer merges with reviewer in GitLab?
The developer assigns the merge request to a reviewer, who looks at it and makes line and design level comments as appropriate. When the reviewer is finished, they assign it back to the author. The author addresses the comments. This stage can go around for a while, but once both are happy, one assigns to a final reviewer who can merge.
