option to disallow accepting self created merge request by creator himself

Currently if you create a merge request it is possible to accept it directly by the creator. It would be very good to have an option to force the acceptance by someone else.

:thumbs_up_sign:

But I think you need to mention it on http://feedback.gitlab.com

@Shivan Any news?

@timofonic seems no news yet. In the enterprise version the approval feature could be configured to solve this. But not possible for the community edition.

@Shivan Thank you for the patience and for linking to the blog post! I think it does not make sense to duplicate the approval logic from EE.

@victorwu Do we want to consider approvals for CE or should we close this issue?

added Discussion stewardship labels

@winh : THat's right. Approvals is an EE feature.
