For a project I want to be able to increase my version number and automatically generate a changelog entry every time I successfully merge a merge request on Gitlab. The entry should include the title of the MR. There's a Gitlab REST API endpoint that generates a changelog, that seems very useful. But it only works when one uses a git trailer on a commit. Instead, I want it to work with my merge requests. Like the following:
- merge a merge request
- a pipeline gets triggered, and sends a request to Gitlab API
- Gitlab creates new version number, and adds missing MR titles to the changelog
How do I get Gitlab to perform the third list item here?
