Add help text on job artifact to explain how to... (gitlab-org/gitlab#404657) and Highlight log line when hash is present in URL (gitlab-org/gitlab#406580) - improve connections between testing outputs, job logs, and artifacts to help people make decisions about their job failures
Pipeline Execution frontend instrumentation for... (gitlab-org/gitlab#409377) - Add data tracking to better understand usage patterns and inform the adoption journey of CICD at GitLab
Cannot obtain an exclusive lease for ci/pipelin... (gitlab-org/gitlab#331033) - Address a very confusing error that appears even though nothing has happened. This will be a great fix to minimize people's frustration using GitLab CI
Finally, continuing the prior milestone's work we will continue to support Fast Forward Merge with Merge Trains - hopefully getting to release it this milestone!

Delivering Fast Forward Merge trains for semi-linear history via Support merge train MR ref being created with r... (gitlab-org/gitlab#413103). Why? This is a standard merge method that users would love to be able to sequence and support with Merge Trains.

Improved usability of Pipeline Schedules via Show an error in Schedules UI when a scheduled ... (gitlab-org/gitlab#224958) and Input fields on Pipeline Schedules have differe... (gitlab-org/gitlab#391212) Why? Pipeline schedules are very loved featured and are used to drive automation and efficiency of scheduling pipelines and tasks. At GitLab we use these pipelines to perform several tasks, including generating release post entries! By making them easier to use and more intuitive we will support organizations efficiency with pipelines!
