-# Pipelines for merge requests **(FREE)**
+This document was moved to [another location](../pipelines/merge_request_pipelines.md).
 
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/15310) in GitLab 11.6.
-
-In a [basic configuration](../pipelines/pipeline_architectures.md#basic-pipelines), GitLab runs a pipeline each time
-changes are pushed to a branch.
-
-If you want the pipeline to run jobs **only** on commits associated with a merge request,
-you can use *pipelines for merge requests*.
-
-In the UI, these pipelines are labeled as `detached`. Otherwise, these pipelines are the same
-as other pipelines.
-
-Pipelines for merge requests can run when you:
-
-- Create a new merge request.
-- Commit changes to the source branch for the merge request.
-- Select the **Run pipeline** button from the **Pipelines** tab in the merge request.
-
-If you use this feature with [merge when pipeline succeeds](../../user/project/merge_requests/merge_when_pipeline_succeeds.md),
-pipelines for merge requests take precedence over other pipelines.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-To enable pipelines for merge requests:
-
-- Your repository must be a GitLab repository, not an
-  [external repository](../ci_cd_for_external_repos/index.md).
-- You must have the Developer [role](../../user/permissions.md)
-  to run a pipeline for merge requests.
-
-## Configure pipelines for merge requests
-
-To configure pipelines for merge requests, you must configure your [CI/CD configuration file](../yaml/index.md).
-To do this, you can use [`rules`](#use-rules-to-run-pipelines-for-merge-requests) or [`only/except`](#use-only-or-except-to-run-pipelines-for-merge-requests).
-
-### Use `rules` to run pipelines for merge requests
-
-GitLab recommends that you use the `rules` keyword, which is available in
-[`workflow:rules` templates](../yaml/index.md#workflowrules-templates).
-
-### Use `only` or `except` to run pipelines for merge requests
-
-You can use the `only/except` keywords. However, with this method, you must specify `only: - merge_requests` for each job.
-
-In the following example, the pipeline contains a `test` job that is configured to run on merge requests.
-The `build` and `deploy` jobs don't have the `only: - merge_requests` keyword,
-so they don't run on merge requests.
-
-```yaml
-build:
-  stage: build
-  script: ./build
-  only:
-    - main
-
-test:
-  stage: test
-  script: ./test
-  only:
-    - merge_requests
-
-deploy:
-  stage: deploy
-  script: ./deploy
-  only:
-    - main
-```
-
-#### Exclude specific jobs
-
-When you use `only: [merge_requests]`, only jobs with
-that keyword are run in the context of a merge request. No other jobs run.
-
-However, you can invert this behavior and have all of your jobs run except
-for one or two. For example, you might have a pipeline with jobs `A`, `B`, and `C`, and you want:
-
-- All pipelines to always run `A` and `B`.
-- `C` to run only for merge requests.
-
-To achieve this outcome, configure your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file as follows:
-
-```yaml
-.only-default: &only-default
-  only:
-    - main
-    - merge_requests
-    - tags
-
-A:
-  <<: *only-default
-  script:
-    - ...
-
-B:
-  <<: *only-default
-  script:
-    - ...
-
-C:
-  script:
-    - ...
-  only:
-    - merge_requests
-```
-
-- `A` and `B` always run, because they get the `only:` rule to execute in all cases.
-- `C` only runs for merge requests. It doesn't run for any pipeline
-  except a merge request pipeline.
-
-In this example, you don't have to add the `only:` rule to all of your jobs to make
-them always run. You can use this format to set up a Review App, which helps to
-save resources.
-
-#### Exclude specific branches
-
-Branch refs use this format: `refs/heads/my-feature-branch`.
-Merge request refs use this format: `refs/merge-requests/:iid/head`.
-
-Because of this difference, the following configuration does not work as expected:
-
-```yaml
-# Does not exclude a branch named "docs-my-fix"!
-test:
-  only: [merge_requests]
-  except: [/^docs-/]
-```
-
-Instead, use the
-[`$CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME` predefined environment
-variable](../variables/predefined_variables.md) in
-combination with
-[`only:variables`](../yaml/index.md#onlyvariables--exceptvariables) to
-accomplish this behavior:
-
-```yaml
-test:
-  only: [merge_requests]
-  except:
-    variables:
-      - $CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME =~ /^docs-/
-```
-
-## Run pipelines in the parent project for merge requests from a forked project **(PREMIUM)**
-
-> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/217451) in GitLab 13.3.
-> - [Moved](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/2021/01/26/new-gitlab-product-subscription-model/) to GitLab Premium in 13.9.
-
-By default, external contributors who work in forks can't create pipelines in the
-parent project. When a merge request that comes from a fork triggers a pipeline:
-
-- The pipeline is created and runs in the fork (source) project, not the parent (target) project.
-- The pipeline uses the fork project's CI/CD configuration and resources.
-
-If a pipeline runs in a fork, a **fork** badge appears for the pipeline in the merge request.
-
-![Pipeline ran in fork](img/pipeline-fork_v13_7.png)
-
-Sometimes parent project members want the pipeline to run in the parent
-project. They may want to ensure that the post-merge pipeline passes in the parent project.
-For example, a fork project could try to use a corrupted runner that doesn't execute
-test scripts properly, but reports a passed pipeline. Reviewers in the parent project
-could mistakenly trust the merge request because it passed a faked pipeline.
-
-Parent project members with at least the [Developer role](../../user/permissions.md)
-can create pipelines in the parent project for merge requests
-from a forked project. In the merge request, go to the **Pipelines** tab and select
-**Run pipeline**.
-
-WARNING:
-Fork merge requests can contain malicious code that tries to steal secrets in the
-parent project when the pipeline runs, even before merge. As a reviewer, you must carefully
-check the changes in the merge request before triggering the pipeline. GitLab shows
-a warning that you must accept before you can trigger the pipeline.
-
-## Predefined variables available for pipelines for merge requests
-
-When you use pipelines for merge requests, [additional predefined variables](../variables/predefined_variables.md#predefined-variables-for-merge-request-pipelines) are available to the CI/CD jobs.
-These variables contain information from the associated merge request, so that you can
-integrate your job with the [GitLab Merge Request API](../../api/merge_requests.md).
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Two pipelines created when pushing to a merge request
-
-If you are experiencing duplicated pipelines when using `rules`, take a look at
-the [important differences between `rules` and `only`/`except`](../jobs/job_control.md#avoid-duplicate-pipelines),
-which helps you get your starting configuration correct.
-
-If you are seeing two pipelines when using `only/except`, please see the caveats
-related to using `only/except` above (or, consider moving to `rules`).
-

-When you submit a merge request, you are requesting to merge changes from a
-source branch into a target branch. By default, the CI pipeline runs jobs
-against the source branch.
-
-With *pipelines for merged results*, the pipeline runs as if the changes from
-the source branch have already been merged into the target branch. The commit shown for the pipeline does not exist on the source or target branches but represents the combined target and source branches.
-
-![Merge request widget for merged results pipeline](img/merged_result_pipeline.png)
-
-If the pipeline fails due to a problem in the target branch, you can wait until the
-target is fixed and re-run the pipeline.
-This new pipeline runs as if the source is merged with the updated target, and you
-don't need to rebase.
-
-The pipeline does not automatically run when the target branch changes. Only changes
-to the source branch trigger a new pipeline. If a long time has passed since the last successful
-pipeline, you may want to re-run it before merge, to ensure that the source changes
-can still be successfully merged into the target.
-
-When the merge request can't be merged, the pipeline runs against the source branch only. For example, when:
-
-- The target branch has changes that conflict with the changes in the source branch.
-- The merge request is a [**Draft** merge request](../../../user/project/merge_requests/drafts.md).
-
-In these cases, the pipeline runs as a [pipeline for merge requests](../index.md)
-and is labeled as `detached`. If these cases no longer exist, new pipelines
-again run against the merged results.
-
-Any user who has developer [permissions](../../../user/permissions.md) can run a
-pipeline for merged results.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-To enable pipelines for merge results:
-
-- You must have the [Maintainer role](../../../user/permissions.md).
-- You must be using [GitLab Runner](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-runner) 11.9 or later.
-- You must not be using
-  [fast forward merges](../../../user/project/merge_requests/fast_forward_merge.md) yet.
-  To follow progress, see [#58226](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/26996).
-- Your repository must be a GitLab repository, not an
-  [external repository](../../ci_cd_for_external_repos/index.md).
-
-## Enable pipelines for merged results
-
-To enable pipelines for merged results for your project:
-
-1. [Configure your CI/CD configuration file](../index.md#configure-pipelines-for-merge-requests)
-   so that the pipeline or individual jobs run for merge requests.
-1. Visit your project's **Settings > General** and expand **Merge requests**.
-1. Check **Enable merged results pipelines**.
-1. Click **Save changes**.
-
-WARNING:
-If you select the check box but don't configure your CI/CD to use
-pipelines for merge requests, your merge requests may become stuck in an
-unresolved state or your pipelines may be dropped.
-
-## Using Merge Trains
-
-When you enable [Pipelines for merged results](#pipelines-for-merged-results),
-GitLab [automatically displays](merge_trains/index.md#add-a-merge-request-to-a-merge-train)
-a **Start/Add Merge Train button**.
-
-Generally, this is a safer option than merging merge requests immediately, because your
-merge request is evaluated with an expected post-merge result before the actual
-merge happens.
-
-For more information, read the [documentation on Merge Trains](merge_trains/index.md).
-
-## Automatic pipeline cancellation
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/12996) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 12.3.
-
-GitLab CI/CD can detect the presence of redundant pipelines, and cancels them
-to conserve CI resources.
-
-When a user merges a merge request immediately within an ongoing merge
-train, the train is reconstructed, because it recreates the expected
-post-merge commit and pipeline. In this case, the merge train may already
-have pipelines running against the previous expected post-merge commit.
-These pipelines are considered redundant and are automatically
-canceled.
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Pipelines for merged results not created even with new change pushed to merge request
-
-Can be caused by some disabled feature flags. Please make sure that
-the following feature flags are enabled on your GitLab instance:
-
-- `:merge_ref_auto_sync`
-
-To check and set these feature flag values, please ask an administrator to:
-
-1. Log into the Rails console of the GitLab instance:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-rails console
-   ```
-
-1. Check if the flags are enabled or not:
-
-   ```ruby
-   Feature.enabled?(:merge_ref_auto_sync)
-   ```
-
-1. If needed, enable the feature flags:
-
-   ```ruby
-   Feature.enable(:merge_ref_auto_sync)
-   ```
-
-### Intermittently pipelines fail by `fatal: reference is not a tree:` error
-
-Since pipelines for merged results are a run on a merge ref of a merge request
-(`refs/merge-requests/<iid>/merge`), the Git reference could be overwritten at an
-unexpected timing. For example, when a source or target branch is advanced.
-In this case, the pipeline fails because of `fatal: reference is not a tree:` error,
-which indicates that the checkout-SHA is not found in the merge ref.
-
-This behavior was improved at GitLab 12.4 by introducing [Persistent pipeline refs](../../troubleshooting.md#fatal-reference-is-not-a-tree-error).
-You should be able to create pipelines at any timings without concerning the error.

+
+# Pipelines for merge requests **(FREE)**
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/15310) in GitLab 11.6.
+
+In a [basic configuration](pipeline_architectures.md#basic-pipelines), GitLab runs a pipeline each time
+changes are pushed to a branch.
+
+If you want the pipeline to run jobs **only** on commits associated with a merge request,
+you can use *pipelines for merge requests*.
+
+In the UI, these pipelines are labeled as `detached`. Otherwise, these pipelines are the same
+as other pipelines.
+
+Pipelines for merge requests can run when you:
+
+- Create a new merge request.
+- Commit changes to the source branch for the merge request.
+- Select the **Run pipeline** button from the **Pipelines** tab in the merge request.
+
+If you use this feature with [merge when pipeline succeeds](../../user/project/merge_requests/merge_when_pipeline_succeeds.md),
+pipelines for merge requests take precedence over other pipelines.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+To enable pipelines for merge requests:
+
+- Your repository must be a GitLab repository, not an
+  [external repository](../ci_cd_for_external_repos/index.md).
+- You must have the Developer [role](../../user/permissions.md)
+  to run a pipeline for merge requests.
+
+## Configure pipelines for merge requests
+
+To configure pipelines for merge requests, you must configure your [CI/CD configuration file](../yaml/index.md).
+To do this, you can use [`rules`](#use-rules-to-run-pipelines-for-merge-requests) or [`only/except`](#use-only-or-except-to-run-pipelines-for-merge-requests).
+
+### Use `rules` to run pipelines for merge requests
+
+GitLab recommends that you use the `rules` keyword, which is available in
+[`workflow:rules` templates](../yaml/index.md#workflowrules-templates).
+
+### Use `only` or `except` to run pipelines for merge requests
+
+You can use the `only/except` keywords. However, with this method, you must specify `only: - merge_requests` for each job.
+
+In the following example, the pipeline contains a `test` job that is configured to run on merge requests.
+The `build` and `deploy` jobs don't have the `only: - merge_requests` keyword,
+so they don't run on merge requests.
+
+```yaml
+build:
+  stage: build
+  script: ./build
+  only:
+    - main
+
+test:
+  stage: test
+  script: ./test
+  only:
+    - merge_requests
+
+deploy:
+  stage: deploy
+  script: ./deploy
+  only:
+    - main
+```
+
+#### Exclude specific jobs
+
+When you use `only: [merge_requests]`, only jobs with
+that keyword are run in the context of a merge request. No other jobs run.
+
+However, you can invert this behavior and have all of your jobs run except
+for one or two. For example, you might have a pipeline with jobs `A`, `B`, and `C`, and you want:
+
+- All pipelines to always run `A` and `B`.
+- `C` to run only for merge requests.
+
+To achieve this outcome, configure your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file as follows:
+
+```yaml
+.only-default: &only-default
+  only:
+    - main
+    - merge_requests
+    - tags
+
+A:
+  <<: *only-default
+  script:
+    - ...
+
+B:
+  <<: *only-default
+  script:
+    - ...
+
+C:
+  script:
+    - ...
+  only:
+    - merge_requests
+```
+
+- `A` and `B` always run, because they get the `only:` rule to execute in all cases.
+- `C` only runs for merge requests. It doesn't run for any pipeline
+  except a merge request pipeline.
+
+In this example, you don't have to add the `only:` rule to all of your jobs to make
+them always run. You can use this format to set up a Review App, which helps to
+save resources.
+
+#### Exclude specific branches
+
+Branch refs use this format: `refs/heads/my-feature-branch`.
+Merge request refs use this format: `refs/merge-requests/:iid/head`.
+
+Because of this difference, the following configuration does not work as expected:
+
+```yaml
+# Does not exclude a branch named "docs-my-fix"!
+test:
+  only: [merge_requests]
+  except: [/^docs-/]
+```
+
+Instead, use the
+[`$CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME` predefined environment
+variable](../variables/predefined_variables.md) in
+combination with
+[`only:variables`](../yaml/index.md#onlyvariables--exceptvariables) to
+accomplish this behavior:
+
+```yaml
+test:
+  only: [merge_requests]
+  except:
+    variables:
+      - $CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME =~ /^docs-/
+```
+
+## Run pipelines in the parent project for merge requests from a forked project **(PREMIUM)**
+
+> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/217451) in GitLab 13.3.
+> - [Moved](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/2021/01/26/new-gitlab-product-subscription-model/) to GitLab Premium in 13.9.
+
+By default, external contributors who work in forks can't create pipelines in the
+parent project. When a merge request that comes from a fork triggers a pipeline:
+
+- The pipeline is created and runs in the fork (source) project, not the parent (target) project.
+- The pipeline uses the fork project's CI/CD configuration and resources.
+
+If a pipeline runs in a fork, a **fork** badge appears for the pipeline in the merge request.
+
+![Pipeline ran in fork](img/pipeline-fork_v13_7.png)
+
+Sometimes parent project members want the pipeline to run in the parent
+project. They may want to ensure that the post-merge pipeline passes in the parent project.
+For example, a fork project could try to use a corrupted runner that doesn't execute
+test scripts properly, but reports a passed pipeline. Reviewers in the parent project
+could mistakenly trust the merge request because it passed a faked pipeline.
+
+Parent project members with at least the [Developer role](../../user/permissions.md)
+can create pipelines in the parent project for merge requests
+from a forked project. In the merge request, go to the **Pipelines** tab and select
+**Run pipeline**.
+
+WARNING:
+Fork merge requests can contain malicious code that tries to steal secrets in the
+parent project when the pipeline runs, even before merge. As a reviewer, you must carefully
+check the changes in the merge request before triggering the pipeline. GitLab shows
+a warning that you must accept before you can trigger the pipeline.
+
+## Predefined variables available for pipelines for merge requests
+
+When you use pipelines for merge requests, [additional predefined variables](../variables/predefined_variables.md#predefined-variables-for-merge-request-pipelines) are available to the CI/CD jobs.
+These variables contain information from the associated merge request, so that you can
+integrate your job with the [GitLab Merge Request API](../../api/merge_requests.md).
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Two pipelines created when pushing to a merge request
+
+If you are experiencing duplicated pipelines when using `rules`, take a look at
+the [important differences between `rules` and `only`/`except`](../jobs/job_control.md#avoid-duplicate-pipelines),
+which helps you get your starting configuration correct.
+
+If you are seeing two pipelines when using `only/except`, please see the caveats
+related to using `only/except` above (or, consider moving to `rules`).
+
+In [GitLab 13.7](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/201845) and later,
+you can add `workflow:rules` to [switch from branch pipelines to merge request pipelines](../yaml/index.md#switch-between-branch-pipelines-and-merge-request-pipelines).
+After a merge request is open on the branch, the pipeline switches to a merge request pipeline.
+
+### Two pipelines created when pushing an invalid CI configuration file
+
+Pushing to a branch with an invalid CI configuration file can trigger
+the creation of two types of failed pipelines. One pipeline is a failed merge request
+pipeline, and the other is a failed branch pipeline, but both are caused by the same
+invalid configuration.
