Review Comment Templates

To configure comment templates, you can choose Settings > Template Management > MR Comment Templates on the repository details page. You can create, edit, and delete a comment template, and customize template information such as Severity, Assign to, Review category, Module, and Description. When a repository member reviews a comment, you can select a review comment template. The template content is automatically applied to the merge request.

The settings take effect only for the repository configured.
