Merge request management in GitLab

• Automatically check for existing merge requests to avoid duplicates.
• Create new merge requests when there are none for a specific source branch.
• Close existing merge requests that are no longer needed.
• Add comments to merge requests for better communication among team members.
• Wait for pipeline approvals before merging changes.

Triggers on a schedule to check for existing merge requests. Uses conditions to determine if a merge request already exists. Creates a new merge request if none is found. Closes any existing merge requests if necessary. Adds custom notes to the merge request. Waits for a specified time before merging when the pipeline succeeds.
