This happened. Here are the notes I took:


- confusion about project-level and group-project settings (e.g. labels)
https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/17753 should fix that

- Q: Can I save custom queries for the issue lists?
A: Not really. there's the "Recent searches" thing, but apart of
that the best we can do is store useful URLs in other places.
See for examples the links on
https://tails.boum.org/contribute/working_together/roles/foundations_team/

- Q: "Create merge request" button on an issue creates a branch that, by default,
     does not follow our branch naming standards.
  A: One can click the "↓" button to choose a different branch name.
     Also, perhaps we could be less rigid wrt. our branch naming standards?


     Other ways to create a merge request while choosing the branch name:


      - push one's branch and click the link that "git push" displays, which offers
        to create a MR
      - push one's branch with Git push options:
        https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/push_options.html#push-options-for-merge-requests


Next one is tomorrow:
