Suggestion: Adjustment of the Pull from remote repository UI to make it clearer to the end user.

Description

I use the pull from remote repository feature on Gitlab, having one account that is a "Bot" account, so my main account isn't flooded with commits/check ins which can be hard to keep track off and also my main account (this one) which is used for creating issues and actual development work. The current UI for the feature is unclear and should be tided up.

Current implementation: image

Proposal - See basic mockups in the discussion area.

  • Adjust wording so that it clearly states only masters can have access to this feature
  • Remove drop down list of names (If you can only assign yourself why do we need a dropdown?) * [ ] If the functionality is changed so anyone can change the check ins to a master on the project that might be useful? But I understand the reasons for and against doing that.
  • Rename "Mirror user" to "Mirror account"
