Was more of a general API feature/question, wherein allowing me to,
merge user1/aports/dev -> user1/aports/master
but creating NO MR.

Currently for given repo user1/aports at gitlab for same I would do,
----------
git clone http://.../user1/aports
cd aports && git branch dev && git checkout dev
".. make all changes .."
git commit ...
git checkout master
git merge dev, git push origin master
----------

what I would like to do is use API, and

git clone http://.../user1/aports
cd aports && git branch dev && git checkout dev
".. make all changes .."
git commit ...
git push origin dev

Then use API or a feature in mkmr,
1. merge dev->master,
2. then send a MR for master (changes)
----------
but then (1) above may not be something in scope of mkmr

maybe I need to go through the API as what can be done :(
