glab-pipeline: Run a manual pipeline on a specific branch.
$ glab pipeline run --branch ${branch_name}
try on your machine

The command "glab pipeline run --branch ${branch_name}" is used to run a pipeline for a specific branch in GitLab.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • glab is the command-line interface (CLI) tool for GitLab.
  • pipeline is a subcommand used to manage pipelines.
  • run is the action to initiate the execution of a pipeline.
  • --branch is an option to specify the branch where the pipeline should run.
  • ${branch_name} is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual name of the branch.

When you run this command, it instructs GitLab to start a pipeline for the specified branch. Pipelines in GitLab are sets of jobs and stages that are executed automatically based on triggers such as commits or manual requests. They help automate the processes of building, testing, and deploying code changes in a project.
