Feature request/RFC: Add ability to read MR comments/make comments inside Vim

[leha-bot]

It would be much convenient to avoid to open browser to see the reviewers commentaries for MRs.

Kind regards,

I'm open to PRs for stuff like this.
The hardest thing here is probably the UI, what does this look like?

There are a bunch of API functions in the code base, I don't think I currently have any for MR comments but they could be added.

PRs welcome.

Yes, I thought about UI. I may suggest a way with something like "lens" with inline comments for files which have been altered by MR; The active MR could be selected from gitlab API and current git branch. We may also jump from all (un)resolved conversations like in Gitlab web ui.
Also I think we may "steal" some UI features from vscode plugins 🤔
sorry if my ideas are "flaky", it's kind of rough drafts :)

Maybe this plugin would do what you need: https://github.com/harrisoncramer/gitlab.nvim.
