asking a GitLab developer to do it once the merge request is merged.
- If you branch is more than 500 commits behind `master`, the job will fail and
you should rebase your branch upon latest `master`.
+- Code reviews for merge requests often consist of multiple iterations of
+ feedback and fixes. There is no need to update your EE MR after each
+ iteration. Instead, create an EE MR as soon as you see the
+ `rake ee_compat_check` job failing and update it after the CE MR is merged.
+ This helps to identify significant conflicts sooner, but also reduces the
+ number of times you have to resolve conflicts.
