It's not a GitLab-sanctioned solution but it's the next best thing. The one downside is that all the MRs will get their last updated timestamp reset but that seems like a pretty small price to pay.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Jordan, is there any way you can make the script sort by last updated before it re-targets the MRs so they at least stay in the same order?
