GitLab encourages communication through comments, threads, and
[
code suggestions
](
../project/merge_requests/reviews/suggestions.md
)
.
For example, you can create a comment in the following place
s:
There are two types of comment
s:
-
Issues
-
A standard comment.
-
A comment in a thread, which has to be resolved.
In a comment, you can enter
[
Markdown
](
../markdown.md
)
and use
[
quick actions
](
../project/quick_actions.md
)
.
You can
[
suggest code changes
](
../project/merge_requests/reviews/suggestions.md
)
in your commit diff comment,
which the user can accept through the user interface.
## Where you can create comments
You can create comments in places like:
-
Commit diffs
-
Commits
-
Designs
-
Epics
-
Issues
-
Merge requests
-
Snippets
-
Commits
-
Commit diffs
There are standard comments, and you also have the option to create a comment
in the form of a thread. A comment can also be
[
turned into a thread
](
#start-a-thread-by-replying-to-a-standard-comment
)
when it receives a reply.
Each object can have as many as 5,000 comments.
The comment area supports
[
Markdown
](
../markdown.md
)
and
[
quick actions
](
../project/quick_actions.md
)
.
You can
[
suggest code changes
](
../project/merge_requests/reviews/suggestions.md
)
in your comment,
which the user can accept through the user interface. You can edit your own
comment at any time, and anyone with the
[
Maintainer role
](
../permissions.md
)
or
higher can also edit a comment made by someone else.
## Reply to a comment by sending email
You can also reply to a comment notification email to reply to the comment if
[
Reply by email
](
../../administration/reply_by_email.md
)
is configured for your GitLab instance. Replying to a standard comment
creates another standard comment. Replying to a threaded comment creates a reply in the thread. Email replies support
[
Markdown
](
../markdown.md
)
and
[
quick actions
](
../project/quick_actions.md
)
, just as if you replied from the web.
If you have
[
"reply by email"
](
../../administration/reply_by_email.md
)
configured,
you can reply to comments by sending an email.
NOTE:
There is a limit of 5,000 comments for every object, for example: issue, epic, and merge request.
-
When you reply to a standard comment, another standard comment is created.
-
When you reply to a threaded comment, it creates a reply in the thread.
You can use
[
Markdown
](
../markdown.md
)
and
[
quick actions
](
../project/quick_actions.md
)
in your email replies.
## Who can edit comments
You can edit your own comment at any time.
Anyone with the
[
Maintainer role
](
../permissions.md
)
or
higher can also edit a comment made by someone else.
