When I create a new merge request, I am not subscribed automatically to it. I should be. Only after I post a comment do I get subscribed to it.
There should be a icon in the toolbar area to subscribe and unsubscribe from a merge request, just like you can for a ticket. On the "browse" pages for the repo, there is an icon to subscribe you to the whole tool. We might want to move that to the sidebar, like we do for the wiki. (Separate subscriptions to all commits vs all merge requests might be nice, but we don't have any way to track that)
