Interesting. Was that the way before, too? At least on github default is public.
Private by defaults means any further development is hidden unless the user
takes action. I think this is a bit unfortunate.

You guys should tell your students that they have to make forks public or you
risk that paid work will be lost.

BTW at least https://gitlab.dune-project.org/help/user/project/merge_requests/reviews/index.md#checkout-merge-requests-locally-through-the-head-ref
works for an existing MR.
