This post strongly advocates for pre-production code reviews, detailing six key benefits: maintaining code freshness, reducing resistance to change, increasing focus on quality, catching mistakes before production, enforcing reviews through mandatory approvals, and promoting smaller, more thorough reviews. It specifically highlights GitLab's 'Merge Request Approvals' as a mechanism to enforce this practice, directly contributing to the evolution of the merge request workflow by underscoring the importance of review enforcement.
