This week, I created my first merge request in our internal gitlab. We've been using gitlab for a few weeks now, so it's quite new. Also we don't have a code review culture in our team, we just trust each other to write reasonable code.

So when I changed an important feature ("updating a document means overwriting the content BLOB" becomes "updating a document means creating a new content BLOB") I wanted my colleague to review my changes. It turned out to be difficult because I changed some lines here and there, I did not even wrote a new method.

So how do you do review such changes based on a diff? Much of the context is missing!

I also tackled some defects and wrote some integration tests that increased our code coverage. Yeah!

And how do I use this giphy-link?
