Hemanth V. Alluri 4e1024da5c webhooks/gitlab: Add an option to exclude MR title from topics.
Since the title of a merge request can often change, it shouldn't be a
part of the topic that we send the message to. Otherwise things would
get messy and confusing.

But at the same time we don't want to make this mandatory. So we add
a new boolean GET parameter that can toggle whether or not the topic
should include the MR title (`use_merge_request_title`).

Fixes #15951.

Receive GitLab notifications in Zulip!

  1. {!create-stream.md!}

  2. {!create-bot-construct-url-indented.md!}

    By default, the Zulip topics for Merge Requests will contain the title of the GitLab Merge Request. You can change the topic format to just contain the Merge Request ID by adding &use_merge_request_title=false at the end of the URL. {!git-webhook-url-with-branches-indented.md!}

  3. Go to your repository on GitLab and click Settings on the left sidebar. Click on Integrations.

  4. Set URL to the URL constructed above. Select the events you you would like to receive notifications for, and click Add Webhook.

!!! tip "" If your GitLab server and your Zulip server are on a local network together, and you're running GitLab 10.5 or newer, you may need to enable GitLab's "Allow requests to the local network from hooks and services" setting (by default, recent GitLab versions refuse to post webhook events to servers on the local network). You can find this setting near the bottom of the GitLab "Settings" page in the "Admin area".
