Marking GitLab issues as duplicates

[Guy Harris <gharris () sonic net>]

If you type a / at the beginning of a comment, it pops up a menu of "quick actions".

One of those actions is /dup{licate}.  If you type

        /duplicate #NNNNN

and save that comment, GitLab will mark the issue in which you make the comment as a duplicate of issue #NNNNN.

This is extraordinarily well documented, in a place that's easy to find, just as many other GitLab features are 
documented in a place easy to find./sarcasm.

I found it, after some Web searching, and following various GitLab issue links for issues on GitLab itself, from

        https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/10391

and

        https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/quick_actions.html

The first of those was the first one I found; annoyingly, the first thing that a Google search for

        slash command gitlab

turned up was

        https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/integration/slash_commands.html

which has nothing to do with GitLab issues; the merge request called /duplicate a "slash command", which led me to 
waste time with that search.
