Summary

GitLab 10.3 introduced a feature called Merge Request Commit Discussions, which benefits teams that work at the individual commit level by enabling them to add comments directly to commits within a merge request, rather than only to a particular version of the request. Available in both GitLab Community and Enterprise Editions, this feature allows users to start specific discussions related to each commit, enhancing collaboration and granularity in the approval process. The interface navigates users to the "Changes" tab to view the diff associated with a specific commit, facilitating inline commenting that initiates separate discussions per commit. These discussions are accessible from the "Commits" or "Discussions" tabs, with the option to resolve them, where resolved discussions are collapsed by default. The team anticipates that this granular approach will be beneficial for teams and encourages feedback through the release blog post or by opening an issue.
