GitLab MR Smart Copy

This browser extension adds a convenient "copy" button to GitLab merge request pages and lists. This allows you to easily copy the merge request (MR) title and URL to your clipboard. Perfect for sharing your MR with your team !

Features

• Adds a copy button: A copy button is added next to the title on a merge request's main page, and next to each MR in the merge request list.
• Smart copy: Copies the MR details in two formats:
  • Plain Text: The direct URL of the merge request.
  • Rich Text (HTML): A hyperlink with the merge request's title.
• Keyboard Shortcut: On a merge request's main page, you can press the c key to copy the MR details.
• Toast Notification: A confirmation message "Copied MR to clipboard." appears when you use the keyboard shortcut.
• Dynamic Page Support: The copy buttons are correctly added even when navigating through GitLab dynamically without full page reloads.

Usage

Once installed, the extension works automatically on GitLab pages.

• On a Merge Request Page: Click the copy icon next to the MR title, or simply press the c key.
• In a Merge Request List: Click the copy icon next to the MR you want to copy.

The MR title and URL will be in your clipboard, ready to be pasted.
