Code review made easier thanks to merge request reviewers in GitLab 13.7

GitLab's upcoming 13.7 release introduces the "reviewers" feature to enhance the code review process, allowing authors to easily request reviews and track their status, addressing challenges faced when using the "assignee" field for both authors and reviewers. This new feature allows users to assign one or more reviewers who will be notified of review requests, streamlining collaboration and role determination in the merge request process. The system supports inline code reviews on feature branches, which can be automatically deleted after a successful merge, ensuring a clean codebase. This release, slated for October 22nd, aims to improve code quality by facilitating more efficient code review workflows and includes plans for future enhancements like suggesting relevant reviewers and refining approval rules.
