is it possible to have auto merge option when creating an MR ?

[juliocbcotta]

I would like to be able to create an MR with the option "auto merge", but I couldn't find anything in the API. Would it be possible to add it to the API?

I think this can be done. You need to create a AcceptMergeRequestParams and set withMergeWhenPipelineSucceeds(true) and then on the MergeRequestApi instance, call acceptMergeRequest(project, mr, param)

A real world example:

(with all sort of tricks like retries and pause to make it work in reality)
