  rules:
    - if: $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE == 'merge_request_event'

    - if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == $CI_DEFAULT_BRANCH

image: gradle:8.4.0-jdk17-jammy

cache:
  key: "$CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME"
  paths:
    - .gradle

Hi.

The workflow rules decide when a pipeline is created. You still need to set up job rules. There’s no interaction between this two types of rules.
