GitLab Approvals is a free Chrome extension developed by Conner Anderson. This add-on falls under the category of Browsers and specifically the subcategory of Add-ons & Tools.

The purpose of GitLab Approvals is to display the approvals for a given Merge Request (MR) within the MR list. When using GitLab's approval system for MRs, it can be difficult to keep track of which MRs you have already approved. This extension solves that problem by making it clear which MRs you have gone through without having to click into each one individually.

The recent updates to GitLab Approvals include added support for Group Views with subgroup projects, ensuring that authors and approvals are fetched accurately. There is also a fix for very large group views, resolving issues with the selector on merge request items and improving the injection of approvals and movement of author views. Additionally, the extension now supports composite group views and includes an option to clear all cache and settings.

GitLab Approvals is a useful tool for GitLab users who want a convenient way to track their approvals for Merge Requests. With its intuitive interface and recent updates, this extension simplifies the approval process and enhances productivity.
