I’m running gitlab-runner version 13.5.0, and I’m trying to use the predefined variable CI_COMMIT_BRANCH in workflow:rules as such:
rules:
- if: '$CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == "master"'
when: manual
however it would not trigger the creation of a manual job, so I ran the ‘export’ command to reveal variable values, and the CI_COMMIT_BRANCH is not present. I’ve tested the job with a workflow:rules condition and the job is created successfully.
To trigger the job, I made a commit locally on master branch, and added a tag, then pushed to gitlab.
I can’t figure out if the CI_COMMIT_BRANCH is suppose to present in this scenario or if I’m experiencing a bug.
I appreciate any help!
