Hi Simon,
Go to the source code that you want to refer to, (Repository… Files for
example, or even within an MR itself)… and you’ll notice if you hover on the
LHS of any source code, next to the line numbers, that it has a little link
icon. Clicking that will change the URL in the URL bar to refer to that place
(you can also shift-click between two lines to create a range if that’s your
particular proclivity). You can copy the link from the URL bar, and then paste
it into the comment where you want to refer to the line of code in question.
Warmest regards,
Julian
