I'd like to add a default Thread to every merge request that gets created for my Gitlab project. This would be automatically added on MR creation, and used to display a checklist of administrative items that need to be completed before the issue is ready to be merged (things like logging time worked on the issue in JIRA, and filling out other fields of the issue).
I haven't been able to find such an option in digging through project settings, or looking online. Any ideas on how to accomplish this?
