Create Merge Request

Create a GitLab merge request for the current branch targeting main.

Steps

1. Get the first commit message of the current branch (compared to main):

   Copygit log main..HEAD --reverse --format="%s" | head -n 1
   

2. Create the MR using glab:

   Copyglab mr create -t "<FIRST_COMMIT_MESSAGE>" -d "<SUMMARY_OF_WHAT_HAS_BEEN_DONE>" -b main --fill -y
   

Notes

• Ensure the branch has been pushed before running this command
• The MR title will be the first commit message of the branch
