Nested child pipeline

In GitLab 13.3 and older, a parent pipeline can trigger many child pipelines, but
those child pipeline cannot trigger further child pipelines.

> - It's [deployed behind a feature flag](../user/feature_flags.md), disabled by default.
> - It's disabled on GitLab.com.

In GitLab 13.4 and newer, the
[
maximum depth of child pipelines was increased to 2
](
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/29651
)
.
A parent pipeline can trigger many child pipelines. These child pipelines can trigger
their own child pipelines. This second layer of child pipelines cannot trigger further
child pipelines.
Parent and child pipelines were introduced with a maximum depth of one level of child
pipelines, which was later increased to two. A parent pipeline can trigger many child
pipelines, and these child pipelines can trigger their own child pipelines. It's not
possible to trigger another level of child pipelines.
### Enable or disable nested child pipelines **(CORE ONLY)**
Nested child pipelines with a depth of two are under development and not ready for
production use. This feature is deployed behind a feature flag that is
**disabled by default**
.
Enabling this feature allows child pipelines to trigger one more level of child pipelines.
The second level of child pipelines cannot trigger any further child pipelines.
[
GitLab administrators with access to the GitLab Rails console
](
../administration/feature_flags.md
)
can enable it.
To enable it:
```
ruby
Feature
.
enable
(
:ci_child_of_child_pipeline
)
```
To disable it:
```
ruby
Feature
.
disable
(
:ci_child_of_child_pipeline
