1. **Filesystem access** can be slow, so try to avoid
[shared files](shared_files.md) when an alternative solution is available.
## Examples
How code reviews are conducted can surprise new contributors. Here are some examples of code reviews that should help to orient you as to what to expect.
**["Modify `DiffNote` to reuse it for Designs"](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/13703):**
It contained everything from nitpicks around newlines to reasoning
about what versions for designs are, how we should compare them
if there was no previous version of a certain file (parent vs.
blank `sha` vs empty tree).
**["Support multi-line suggestions"](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/25211)**:
The MR itself consists of a collaboration between FE and BE,
and documenting comments from the author for the reviewer.
There's some nitpicks, some questions for information, and
towards the end, a security vulnerability.
**["Allow multiple repositories per project"](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/10251)**:
ZJ referred to the other projects (workhorse) this might impact,
suggested some improvements for consistency. And James' comments
helped us with overall code quality (using delegation, `&.` those
types of things), and making the code more robust.
**["Support multiple assignees for merge requests"](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/10161)**:
A good example of collaboration on an MR touching multiple parts of the codebase. Nick pointed out interesting edge cases, James Lopes also joined in raising concerns on import/export feature.
