For smaller development operations where the reviewer and approver is the same person on a merge request, is there some way to bypass the current review/approval process? I have in the past created a duplicate user which I would switch to to self-approve my merge request but was wondering if there was an easier way.
Hi Ian!
No, this is not possible today. Every Merge Request must have at least one approval to merge.

As a workaround, you can manually merge your objects.

@lauren If you manually merge the objects, can you still create a metadata manifest off of the merge request?
@brendan.b Once a Metadata Manifest is prepared, you are able to manually add additional or remove unwanted objects if needed using the Manage Details page. An example would be a Header and Header/Detail application won’t be in the Merge Request for Detail application modifications but need to be in the Manifest for proper generation in the environment the Manifest is deployed.
However, in order to prepare the Manifest initially, there must be an approved Merge Request associated with the Manifest.
