If it is just the MR click on "cherry pick this" => then I wouldn't call that "tooling you get with Gitlab" => for that Gitlab is just a client, like any other git client. And you can do that with any other git client.

The difference is that in gitlab it takes all the commits from the MR.
If the MR is merged, I have a branch with all the commits. Most local GUI clients will make it very easy to select that for picking => so there is no real difference in that. I stand by: That button in gitlab is no better tooling than any other (halfway decent) GUI client. (GUI, since the web is GUI too)

Except see below.


on the command-line, you need to specify all commits yourself.

Secondly, when you are handling the MR (which you must do anyway if it is
a 3rd party MR), you are already in gitlab, so it is right there under your nose. It's literally a click away.

You were conveniently ignoring this part in your reply. You have to handle the user's MRs in gitlab.

Which is exactly what I am doing:

Standard output of gitlab tooling, BTW.
