GitLab: How to change merge commit message template?

Typical message looks like:

Merge branch ‘mass-refactoring’ into ‘master’

Mass refactoring

See merge request group/project!13

Is it possible to change template to something like: ?

HEADER

BODY

Merge branch SRC_BRANCH into TGT_BRANCH. See merge-request GROUP/PROJECT!N
Solution

  • As listed here (gitlab issue #2551) the wish for such a feature is still present (4 weeks ago).

    To answer your question, no, there is none built-in gitlab feature to change the merge message template.
