Saved replies (FREE)
Introduced in GitLab 14.9 with a flag named
saved_replies. Disabled by default.
With saved replies, create and reuse text for any text area in:
- Merge requests, including diffs.
- Issues, including design management comments.
- Epics.
- Work items.
Saved replies can be small, like approving a merge request and unassigning yourself from it, or large, like chunks of boilerplate text you use frequently:
