Unfortunately, GitLab is no longer Fit for Purpose since it caps the maximum size of Merge Requests (aka PRs), and anything over that size just isn't shown in the Merge Request.

This bit us recently at my work where there was an important MR needing review, and over 1/2 of it couldn't be viewed in the GitLab web interface by any means.

It's a (mis) "feature" they're aware of, and have no plan to fix before 2027 at the earliest.

Needless to say, we're migrating off it and recommend others do the same.
