Gitlab Tweaks: Functional improvements for Gitlab
Gitlab Tweaks is a Chrome extension developed by gitlab-tweaks that provides several functional improvements and additions for Gitlab. This free extension enhances the user experience by adding useful features to the Gitlab platform.
One of the key improvements offered by Gitlab Tweaks is the ability to view issue cards on the board with additional information. Users can now see the number of related merge requests and track the time spent on an issue. The time tracking stats on the issue card change colors when the estimated time has been exceeded. Additionally, users can remove individual labels directly from the issue card, making it more convenient to manage labels.
After selecting an issue on the board, Gitlab Tweaks adds a right sidebar that allows users to remove individual labels from the issue with just a single click. This feature streamlines the label management process and saves time for users.
In the epic detail view, Gitlab Tweaks adds labels to the assigned issues list, providing better organization and clarity. Furthermore, the extension shows the sum of the weight of issues for each epic, including open, closed, and total weights.
To use Gitlab Tweaks, users need to insert a personal Gitlab token in the form that opens when clicking the extension icon in the header bar. It's important to note that the extension is currently limited to gitlab.com.
Overall, Gitlab Tweaks is a valuable extension for Gitlab users, offering functional improvements and enhancing the user experience. With its various features, it provides better visibility, organization, and convenience in managing issues and labels on the Gitlab platform.
