GitLab summary note on review

Hi devs, I've frequently wanted to attach a summary note to a review, unattached to any line of code. I thought this was impossible, but I see how to do it now. After making your review, with perhaps many line comments, go back to the Overview pane. Then, you can write a comment at the bottom, and, critically, add it to the review. Then, when you submit the review, the summary comment goes with it. Happy reviewing, Richard

For what it's worth, this is a somewhat new feature that was added, at least in part, in response to our feedback. We owe some thanks to our friends at GitLab for their responsiveness. Cheers, - Ben
