Create Merge Request

Create a GitLab merge request for the current branch targeting main.

Steps

1. Get the first commit message of the current branch (compared to main):

   git log main..HEAD --reverse --format="%s" | head -n 1
   

2. Build the description in a file containing REAL line breaks. Never put \n or \\n inside a quoted -d argument: the shell passes those characters literally, so GitLab renders them as \n instead of Markdown line breaks.

   Use the file tool or a quoted heredoc to create the body, then pass its contents:

   glab mr create -t "<TITLE>" -d "$(cat /tmp/mr_body.md)" -b main -y
