 Pipelines are the top-level component of continuous integration, delivery, and deployment.
 
 Pipelines comprise:
 
-- Jobs that define what to run. For example, code compilation or test runs.
-- Stages that define when and how to run. For example, that tests run only after code compilation.
+- Jobs, which define *what* to do. For example, jobs that compile or test code.
+- Stages, which define *when* to run the jobs. For example, stages that run tests after stages that compile the code.
 
-Multiple jobs in the same stage are executed by [Runners](../runners/README.md) in parallel, if there are enough concurrent [Runners](../runners/README.md).
+Jobs are executed by [Runners](../runners/README.md). Multiple jobs in the same stage are executed in parallel,
+if there are enough concurrent runners.
 
 If all the jobs in a stage:
 
 - Succeed, the pipeline moves on to the next stage.
 - Fail, the next stage is not (usually) executed and the pipeline ends early.
 
+In general, pipelines are executed automatically and require no intervention once created. However, there are
+also times when you can manually interact with a pipeline.
+
+A typical pipeline might consist of four stages, executed in the following order:
+
+- A `build` stage, with a job called `compile`.
+- A `test` stage, with two jobs called `test1` and `test2`.
+- A `staging` stage, with a job called `deploy-to-stage`.
+- A `production` stage, with a job called `deploy-to-prod`.
+
 NOTE: **Note:**
 If you have a [mirrored repository that GitLab pulls from](../../user/project/repository/repository_mirroring.md#pulling-from-a-remote-repository-starter),
 you may need to enable pipeline triggering in your project's
 **Settings > Repository > Pull from a remote repository > Trigger pipelines for mirror updates**.
 
-## Simple pipeline example
+## Types of pipelines
 
-As an example, imagine a pipeline consisting of four stages, executed in the following order:
+Pipelines can be configured in many different ways:
 
-- `build`, with a job called `compile`.
-- `test`, with two jobs called `test` and `test2`.
-- `staging`, with a job called `deploy-to-stage`.
-- `production`, with a job called `deploy-to-prod`.
+- [Multi-project pipelines](../multi_project_pipelines.md) combine pipelines for different projects together.
+- [Parent-Child pipelines](../parent_child_pipelines.md) break down complex pipelines
+  into one parent pipeline that can trigger multiple child sub-pipelines, which all
+  run in the same project and with the same SHA.
+- [Pipelines for Merge Requests](../merge_request_pipelines/index.md) run for merge
+  requests only (rather than for every commit).
+- [Pipelines for Merged Results](../merge_request_pipelines/pipelines_for_merged_results/index.md)
+  are merge request pipelines that act as though the changes from the source branch have
+  already been merged into the target branch.
+- [Merge Trains](../merge_request_pipelines/pipelines_for_merged_results/merge_trains/index.md)
+  use pipelines for merged results to queue merges one after the other.
 
-## Visualizing pipelines
+## Configure a pipeline
 
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/5742) in GitLab 8.11.
+Pipelines and their component jobs and stages are defined in the CI/CD pipeline configuration file for each project.
 
-Pipelines can be complex structures with many sequential and parallel jobs.
-
-To make it easier to understand the flow of a pipeline, GitLab has pipeline graphs for viewing pipelines
-and their statuses.
-
-Pipeline graphs can be displayed in two different ways, depending on the page you
-access the graph from.
+- Jobs are the [basic configuration](../yaml/README.md#introduction) component.
+- Stages are defined by using the [`stages`](../yaml/README.md#stages) keyword.
 
-NOTE: **Note:**
-GitLab capitalizes the stages' names when shown in the pipeline graphs (below).
+For a list of configuration options in the CI pipeline file, see the [GitLab CI/CD Pipeline Configuration Reference](../yaml/README.md).
 
-### Regular pipeline graphs
+You can also configure specific aspects of your pipelines through the GitLab UI. For example:
 
-Regular pipeline graphs show the names of the jobs of each stage. Regular pipeline graphs can
-be found when you are on a [single pipeline page](#accessing-pipelines). For example:
+- [Pipeline settings](settings.md) for each project.
+- [Pipeline schedules](schedules.md).
+- [Custom CI/CD variables](../variables/README.md#creating-a-custom-environment-variable).
 
-![Pipelines example](img/pipelines.png)
+### View pipelines
 
-### Pipeline mini graphs
+You can find the current and historical pipeline runs under your project's
+**CI/CD > Pipelines** page. You can also access pipelines for a merge request by navigating
+to its **Pipelines** tab.
 
-Pipeline mini graphs take less space and can tell you at a
-quick glance if all jobs passed or something failed. The pipeline mini graph can
-be found when you navigate to:
+![Pipelines index page](img/pipelines_index.png)
 
-- The pipelines index page.
-- A single commit page.
-- A merge request page.
+Clicking a pipeline will bring you to the **Pipeline Details** page and show
+the jobs that were run for that pipeline. From here you can cancel a running pipeline,
+retry jobs on a failed pipeline, or [delete a pipeline](#delete-a-pipeline).
 
-Pipeline mini graphs allow you to see all related jobs for a single commit and the net result
-of each stage of your pipeline. This allows you to quickly see what failed and
-fix it.
+[Starting in GitLab 12.3](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/issues/50499), a link to the
+latest pipeline for the last commit of a given branch is available at `/project/pipelines/[branch]/latest`.
+Also, `/project/pipelines/latest` will redirect you to the latest pipeline for the last commit
+on the project's default branch.
 
-Stages in pipeline mini graphs are collapsible. Hover your mouse over them and click to expand their jobs.
+### Run a pipeline manually
 
-| Mini graph                                                   | Mini graph expanded                                            |
-|:-------------------------------------------------------------|:---------------------------------------------------------------|
-| ![Pipelines mini graph](img/pipelines_mini_graph_simple.png) | ![Pipelines mini graph extended](img/pipelines_mini_graph.png) |
+Pipelines can be manually executed, with predefined or manually-specified [variables](../variables/README.md).
 
-### Job ordering in pipeline graphs
+You might do this if the results of a pipeline (for example, a code build) are required outside the normal
+operation of the pipeline.
 
-Job ordering depends on the type of pipeline graph. For [regular pipeline graphs](#regular-pipeline-graphs), jobs are sorted by name.
+To execute a pipeline manually:
 
-For [pipeline mini graphs](#pipeline-mini-graphs) ([introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/9760)
-in GitLab 9.0), jobs are sorted by severity and then by name.
+1. Navigate to your project's **CI/CD > Pipelines**.
+1. Click on the **Run Pipeline** button.
+1. On the **Run Pipeline** page:
+    1. Select the branch to run the pipeline for in the **Create for** field.
+    1. Enter any [environment variables](../variables/README.md) required for the pipeline run.
+    1. Click the **Create pipeline** button.
 
-The order of severity is:
+The pipeline will execute the jobs as configured.
 
-- failed
-- warning
-- pending
-- running
-- manual
-- scheduled
-- canceled
-- success
-- skipped
-- created
+### Run a pipeline by using a URL query string
 
-For example:
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/24146) in GitLab 12.5.
 
-![Pipeline mini graph sorting](img/pipelines_mini_graph_sorting.png)
+You can use a query string to pre-populate the **Run Pipeline** page. For example, the query string
+`.../pipelines/new?ref=my_branch&var[foo]=bar&file_var[file_foo]=file_bar` will pre-populate the
+**Run Pipeline** page with:
 
-### Expanding and collapsing job log sections
+- **Run for** field: `my_branch`.
+- **Variables** section:
+  - Variable:
+    - Key: `foo`
+    - Value: `bar`
+  - File:
+    - Key: `file_foo`
+    - Value: `file_bar`
 
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/issues/14664) in GitLab 12.0.
+The format of the `pipelines/new` URL is:
 
-Job logs are divided into sections that can be collapsed or expanded. Each section will display
-the duration.
+```plaintext
+.../pipelines/new?ref=<branch>&var[<variable_key>]=<value>&file_var[<file_key>]=<value>
+```
 
-In the following example:
+The following parameters are supported:
 
-- Two sections are collapsed and can be expanded.
-- Three sections are expanded and can be collapsed.
+- `ref`: specify the branch to populate the **Run for** field with.
+- `var`: specify a `Variable` variable.
+- `file_var`: specify a `File` variable.
 
-![Collapsible sections](img/collapsible_log_v12_6.png)
+For each `var` or `file_var`, a key and value are required.
 
-#### Custom collapsible sections
+### Add manual interaction to your pipeline
 
-You can create collapsible sections in job logs by manually outputting special codes
-that GitLab will use to determine what sections to collapse:
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/7931) in GitLab 8.15.
 
-- Section start marker: `section_start:UNIX_TIMESTAMP:SECTION_NAME\r\e[0K` + `TEXT_OF_SECTION_HEADER`
-- Section end marker: `section_end:UNIX_TIMESTAMP:SECTION_NAME\r\e[0K`
+Manual actions, configured using the [`when:manual`](../yaml/README.md#whenmanual) parameter,
+allow you to require manual interaction before moving forward in the pipeline.
 
-You must add these codes to the script section of the CI configuration. For example,
-using `echo`:
+You can do this straight from the pipeline graph. Just click the play button
+to execute that particular job.
 
-```yaml
-job1:
-  script:
-    - echo -e "section_start:`date +%s`:my_first_section\r\e[0KHeader of the 1st collapsible section"
-    - echo 'this line should be hidden when collapsed'
-    - echo -e "section_end:`date +%s`:my_first_section\r\e[0K"
-```
+For example, your pipeline might start automatically, but it requires manual action to
+[deploy to production](../environments.md#configuring-manual-deployments). In the example below, the `production`
+stage has a job with a manual action.
 
-In the example above:
+![Pipelines example](img/pipelines.png)
 
-- `date +%s`: The Unix timestamp (for example `1560896352`).
-- `my_first_section`: The name given to the section.
-- `\r\e[0K`: Prevents the section markers from displaying in the rendered (colored)
-  job log, but they are displayed in the raw job log. To see them, in the top right
-  of the job log, click **{doc-text}** (**Show complete raw**).
-  - `\r`: carriage return.
-  - `\e[0K`: clear line ANSI escape code.
+#### Start multiple manual actions in a stage
 
-Sample raw job log:
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/27188) in GitLab 11.11.
 
-```plaintext
-section_start:1560896352:my_first_section\r\e[0KHeader of the 1st collapsible section
-this line should be hidden when collapsed
-section_end:1560896353:my_first_section\r\e[0K
-```
+Multiple manual actions in a single stage can be started at the same time using the "Play all manual" button.
+Once the user clicks this button, each individual manual action will be triggered and refreshed
+to an updated status.
 
-### Pipeline success and duration charts
+This functionality is only available:
 
-> - Introduced in GitLab 3.1.1 as Commit Stats, and later renamed to Pipeline Charts.
-> - [Renamed](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/38318) to CI / CD Analytics in GitLab 12.8.
+- For users with at least Developer access.
+- If the stage contains [manual actions](#add-manual-interaction-to-your-pipeline).

+Deleting a pipeline will expire all pipeline caches, and delete all related objects,
+such as builds, logs, artifacts, and triggers. **This action cannot be undone.**
 
-## Pipeline quotas
+### Pipeline quotas
 
 Each user has a personal pipeline quota that tracks the usage of shared runners in all personal projects.
 Each group has a [usage quota](../../subscriptions/index.md#ci-pipeline-minutes) that tracks the usage of shared runners for all projects created within the group.
 
 When a pipeline is triggered, regardless of who triggered it, the pipeline quota for the project owner's [namespace](../../user/group/index.md#namespaces) is used. In this case, the namespace can be the user or group that owns the project.

-## Configuring pipelines
+### Pipeline security on protected branches
 
-Pipelines, and their component jobs and stages, are defined in the [`.gitlab-ci.yml`](../yaml/README.md) file for each project.
+A strict security model is enforced when pipelines are executed on
+[protected branches](../../user/project/protected_branches.md).
 
-In particular:
+The following actions are allowed on protected branches only if the user is
+[allowed to merge or push](../../user/project/protected_branches.md#using-the-allowed-to-merge-and-allowed-to-push-settings)
+on that specific branch:
 
-- Jobs are the [basic configuration](../yaml/README.md#introduction) component.
-- Stages are defined using the [`stages`](../yaml/README.md#stages) keyword.
+- Run manual pipelines (using the [Web UI](#run-a-pipeline-manually) or [pipelines API](#pipelines-api)).
+- Run scheduled pipelines.
+- Run pipelines using triggers.
+- Trigger manual actions on existing pipelines.
+- Retry or cancel existing jobs (using the Web UI or pipelines API).
 
-For all available configuration options, see the [GitLab CI/CD Pipeline Configuration Reference](../yaml/README.md).
+**Variables** marked as **protected** are accessible only to jobs that
+run on protected branches, preventing untrusted users getting unintended access to
+sensitive information like deployment credentials and tokens.
 
-### Settings and schedules
+**Runners** marked as **protected** can run jobs only on protected
+branches, preventing untrusted code from executing on the protected runner and
+preserving deployment keys and other credentials from being unintentionally
+accessed. In order to ensure that jobs intended to be executed on protected
+runners will not use regular runners, they must be tagged accordingly.
 
-In addition to configuring jobs through `.gitlab-ci.yml`, additional configuration options are available
-through the GitLab UI:
+## View jobs in a pipeline
 
-- Pipeline settings for each project. For more information, see [Pipeline settings](settings.md).
-- Schedules for pipelines. For more information, see [Pipeline schedules](schedules.md).
+When you access a pipeline, you can see the related jobs for that pipeline.
 
-### Grouping jobs
+Clicking an individual job will show you its job log, and allow you to:
 
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/6242) in GitLab 8.12.
+- Cancel the job.
+- Retry the job.
+- Erase the job log.
 
-If you have many similar jobs, your [pipeline graph](#visualizing-pipelines) becomes long and hard
-to read.
+### See why a job failed
 
-For that reason, similar jobs can automatically be grouped together.
-If the job names are formatted in certain ways, they will be collapsed into
-a single group in regular pipeline graphs (not the mini graphs).
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/17782) in GitLab 10.7.
 
-You'll know when a pipeline has grouped jobs if you don't see the retry or
-cancel button inside them. Hovering over them will show the number of grouped
-jobs. Click to expand them.
+When a pipeline fails or is allowed to fail, there are several places where you
+can find the reason:
 
-![Grouped pipelines](img/pipelines_grouped.png)
+- In the [pipeline graph](#visualize-pipelines), on the pipeline detail view.
+- In the pipeline widgets, in the merge requests and commit pages.
+- In the job views, in the global and detailed views of a job.
 
-#### Configuring grouping
+In each place, if you hover over the failed job you can see the reason it failed.
 
-In the pipeline [configuration file](../yaml/README.md), job names must include two numbers separated with one of
-the following (you can even use them interchangeably):
+![Pipeline detail](img/job_failure_reason.png)
 
-- A space.
-- A slash (`/`).
-- A colon (`:`).
+In [GitLab 10.8](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/17814) and later,
+you can also see the reason it failed on the Job detail page.
 
-NOTE: **Note:**
-More specifically, it uses [this](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/blob/2f3dc314f42dbd79813e6251792853bc231e69dd/app/models/commit_status.rb#L99) regular expression: `\d+[\s:\/\\]+\d+\s*`.

-#### How grouping works
+The order of jobs in a pipeline depends on the type of pipeline graph.
 
-The jobs will be ordered by comparing those two numbers from left to right. You
-usually want the first to be the index and the second the total.
+- For [regular pipeline graphs](#regular-pipeline-graphs), jobs are sorted by name.
+- For [pipeline mini graphs](#pipeline-mini-graphs), jobs are sorted by severity and then by name.
 
-For example, the following jobs will be grouped under a job named `test`:
+The order of severity is:
 
-- `test 0 3`
-- `test 1 3`
-- `test 2 3`
+- failed
+- warning
+- pending
+- running
+- manual
+- scheduled
+- canceled
+- success
+- skipped
+- created
 
-The following jobs will be grouped under a job named `test ruby`:
+For example:
 
-- `test 1:2 ruby`
-- `test 2:2 ruby`
+![Pipeline mini graph sorting](img/pipelines_mini_graph_sorting.png)
 
-The following jobs will be grouped under a job named `test ruby` as well:
+### Group jobs in a pipeline
 
-- `1/3 test ruby`
-- `2/3 test ruby`
-- `3/3 test ruby`
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/6242) in GitLab 8.12.
 
-### Pipelines for merge requests
+If you have many similar jobs, your [pipeline graph](#visualize-pipelines) becomes long and hard
+to read.
 
-GitLab supports configuring pipelines that run only for merge requests. For more information, see
-[Pipelines for merge requests](../merge_request_pipelines/index.md).
+You can automatically group similar jobs together. If the job names are formatted in a certain way,
+they will be collapsed into a single group in regular pipeline graphs (not the mini graphs).
 
-### Badges
+You'll know when a pipeline has grouped jobs if you don't see the retry or
+cancel button inside them. Hovering over them will show the number of grouped
+jobs. Click to expand them.
 
-Pipeline status and test coverage report badges are available and configurable for each project.
+![Grouped pipelines](img/pipelines_grouped.png)
 
-For information on adding pipeline badges to projects, see [Pipeline badges](settings.md#pipeline-badges).
+To create a group of jobs, in the [CI/CD pipeline configuration file](../yaml/README.md),
+separate each job name with a number and one of the following:
 
-## Multi-project pipelines
+- A slash (`/`), for example, `test 1/3`, `test 2/3`, `test 3/3`.
+- A colon (`:`), for example, `test 1:3`, `test 2:3`, `test 3:3`.
+- A space, for example `test 0 3`, `test 1 3`, `test 2 3`.
 
-Pipelines for different projects can be combined together into [Multi-project pipelines](../multi_project_pipelines.md).
+You can use these symbols interchangeably.
 
-[Multi-project pipeline graphs](../multi_project_pipelines.md#multi-project-pipeline-visualization-premium) help
-you visualize the entire pipeline, including all cross-project inter-dependencies. **(PREMIUM)**
+For example, these three jobs will be in a group named `build ruby`:
 
-## Parent-child pipelines
+```yaml
+build ruby 1/3:
+  stage: build
+  script:
+  - echo "ruby1"
 
-Complex pipelines can be broken down into one parent pipeline that can trigger
-multiple child sub-pipelines, which all run in the same project and with the same SHA.
+build ruby 2/3:
+  stage: build
+  script:
+  - echo "ruby2"
+  
+build ruby 3/3:
+  stage: build
+  script:
+  - echo "ruby3"
+```
 
-For more information, see [Parent-Child pipelines](../parent_child_pipelines.md).
+In the pipeline, the result is a group named `build ruby` with three jobs:
 
-## Working with pipelines
+![Job group](img/job_group_v12_10.png)
 
-In general, pipelines are executed automatically and require no intervention once created.
+The jobs will be ordered by comparing the numbers from left to right. You
+usually want the first number to be the index and the second number to be the total.
 
-However, there are instances where you'll need to interact with pipelines. These are documented below.
+[This regular expression](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/blob/2f3dc314f42dbd79813e6251792853bc231e69dd/app/models/commit_status.rb#L99)
+evaluates the job names: `\d+[\s:\/\\]+\d+\s*`.
 
-### Manually executing pipelines
+### Specifying variables when running manual jobs
 
-Pipelines can be manually executed, with predefined or manually-specified [variables](../variables/README.md).
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/30485) in GitLab 12.2.
 
-You might do this if the results of a pipeline (for example, a code build) is required outside the normal
-operation of the pipeline.
+When running manual jobs you can supply additional job specific variables.
 
-To execute a pipeline manually:
+You can do this from the job page of the manual job you want to run with
+additional variables.
 
-1. Navigate to your project's **CI/CD > Pipelines**.
-1. Click on the **Run Pipeline** button.
-1. On the **Run Pipeline** page:
-    1. Select the branch to run the pipeline for in the **Create for** field.
-    1. Enter any [environment variables](../variables/README.md) required for the pipeline run.
-    1. Click the **Create pipeline** button.
+This is useful when you want to alter the execution of a job by using
+environment variables.
 
-The pipeline will execute the jobs as configured.
+![Manual job variables](img/manual_job_variables.png)
 
-#### Using a query string
+### Delay a job
 
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/24146) in GitLab 12.5.
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/21767) in GitLab 11.4.
 
-Variables on the **Run Pipeline** page can be pre-populated by passing variable keys and values
-in a query string appended to the `pipelines/new` URL. The format is:
+When you do not want to run a job immediately, you can use the [`when:delayed`](../yaml/README.md#whendelayed) parameter to
+delay a job's execution for a certain period.
 
-```plaintext
-.../pipelines/new?ref=<branch>&var[<variable_key>]=<value>&file_var[<file_key>]=<value>
-```
+This is especially useful for timed incremental rollout where new code is rolled out gradually.
 
-The following parameters are supported:
+For example, if you start rolling out new code and:
 
-- `ref`: specify the branch to populate the **Run for** field with.
-- `var`: specify a `Variable` variable.
-- `file_var`: specify a `File` variable.
+- Users do not experience trouble, GitLab can automatically complete the deployment from 0% to 100%.
+- Users experience trouble with the new code, you can stop the timed incremental rollout by canceling the pipeline
+  and [rolling](../environments.md#retrying-and-rolling-back) back to the last stable version.
 
-For each `var` or `file_var`, a key and value are required.
+![Pipelines example](img/pipeline_incremental_rollout.png)
 
-For example, the query string
-`.../pipelines/new?ref=my_branch&var[foo]=bar&file_var[file_foo]=file_bar` will pre-populate the
-**Run Pipeline** page as follows:
+### Expand and collapse job log sections
 
-- **Run for** field: `my_branch`.
-- **Variables** section:
-  - Variable:
-    - Key: `foo`
-    - Value: `bar`
-  - File:
-    - Key: `file_foo`
-    - Value: `file_bar`
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/issues/14664) in GitLab 12.0.
 
-### Accessing pipelines
+Job logs are divided into sections that can be collapsed or expanded. Each section will display
+the duration.
 
-You can find the current and historical pipeline runs under your project's
-**CI/CD > Pipelines** page. You can also access pipelines for a merge request by navigating
-to its **Pipelines** tab.
+In the following example:
 
-![Pipelines index page](img/pipelines_index.png)
+- Two sections are collapsed and can be expanded.
+- Three sections are expanded and can be collapsed.
 
-Clicking on a pipeline will bring you to the **Pipeline Details** page and show
-the jobs that were run for that pipeline. From here you can cancel a running pipeline,
-retry jobs on a failed pipeline, or [delete a pipeline](#deleting-a-single-pipeline).
+![Collapsible sections](img/collapsible_log_v12_6.png)
 
-### Accessing individual jobs
+#### Custom collapsible sections
 
-When you access a pipeline, you can see the related jobs for that pipeline.
+You can create collapsible sections in job logs by manually outputting special codes
+that GitLab will use to determine what sections to collapse:
 
-Clicking on an individual job will show you its job log, and allow you to:
+- Section start marker: `section_start:UNIX_TIMESTAMP:SECTION_NAME\r\e[0K` + `TEXT_OF_SECTION_HEADER`
+- Section end marker: `section_end:UNIX_TIMESTAMP:SECTION_NAME\r\e[0K`
 
-- Cancel the job.
-- Retry the job.
-- Erase the job log.
+You must add these codes to the script section of the CI configuration. For example,
+using `echo`:
 
-### Seeing the failure reason for jobs
+```yaml
+job1:
+  script:
+    - echo -e "section_start:`date +%s`:my_first_section\r\e[0KHeader of the 1st collapsible section"
+    - echo 'this line should be hidden when collapsed'
+    - echo -e "section_end:`date +%s`:my_first_section\r\e[0K"
+```
 
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/17782) in GitLab 10.7.
+In the example above:
 
-When a pipeline fails or is allowed to fail, there are several places where you
-can quickly check the reason it failed:
+- `date +%s`: The Unix timestamp (for example `1560896352`).
+- `my_first_section`: The name given to the section.
+- `\r\e[0K`: Prevents the section markers from displaying in the rendered (colored)
+  job log, but they are displayed in the raw job log. To see them, in the top right
+  of the job log, click **{doc-text}** (**Show complete raw**).
+  - `\r`: carriage return.
+  - `\e[0K`: clear line ANSI escape code.
 
-- In the pipeline graph, on the pipeline detail view.
-- In the pipeline widgets, in the merge requests and commit pages.
-- In the job views, in the global and detailed views of a job.
+Sample raw job log:
 
-In each place, if you hover over the failed job you can see the reason it failed.
+```plaintext
+section_start:1560896352:my_first_section\r\e[0KHeader of the 1st collapsible section
+this line should be hidden when collapsed
+section_end:1560896353:my_first_section\r\e[0K
+```

-### Manual actions from pipeline graphs
+Pipelines can be complex structures with many sequential and parallel jobs.
 
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/7931) in GitLab 8.15.
+To make it easier to understand the flow of a pipeline, GitLab has pipeline graphs for viewing pipelines
+and their statuses.
 
-Manual actions, configured using the [`when:manual`](../yaml/README.md#whenmanual) parameter,
-allow you to require manual interaction before moving forward in the pipeline.
+Pipeline graphs can be displayed in two different ways, depending on the page you
+access the graph from.
 
-You can do this straight from the pipeline graph. Just click on the play button
-to execute that particular job.
+NOTE: **Note:**
+GitLab capitalizes the stages' names in the pipeline graphs.
 
-For example, your pipeline start automatically, but require manual action to
-[deploy to production](../environments.md#configuring-manual-deployments). In the example below, the `production`
-stage has a job with a manual action.
+### Regular pipeline graphs
+
+Regular pipeline graphs show the names of the jobs in each stage. Regular pipeline graphs can
+be found when you are on a [single pipeline page](#view-pipelines). For example:

-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/30485) in GitLab 12.2.
+### Pipeline mini graphs
 
-When running manual jobs you can supply additional job specific variables.
+Pipeline mini graphs take less space and can tell you at a
+quick glance if all jobs passed or something failed. The pipeline mini graph can
+be found when you navigate to:
 
-You can do this from the job page of the manual job you want to run with
-additional variables.
+- The pipelines index page.
+- A single commit page.
+- A merge request page.
 
-This is useful when you want to alter the execution of a job by using
-environment variables.
+Pipeline mini graphs allow you to see all related jobs for a single commit and the net result
+of each stage of your pipeline. This allows you to quickly see what failed and
+fix it.
 
-![Manual job variables](img/manual_job_variables.png)
+Stages in pipeline mini graphs are collapsible. Hover your mouse over them and click to expand their jobs.

-When you do not want to run a job immediately, you can use the [`when:delayed`](../yaml/README.md#whendelayed) parameter to
-delay a job's execution for a certain period.
+> - Introduced in GitLab 3.1.1 as Commit Stats, and later renamed to Pipeline Charts.

-This is especially useful for timed incremental rollout where new code is rolled out gradually.
+GitLab tracks the history of your pipeline successes and failures, as well as how long each pipeline ran. To view this information, go to **Analytics > CI / CD Analytics**.
 
-For example, if you start rolling out new code and:
+View successful pipelines:
 
-- Users do not experience trouble, GitLab can automatically complete the deployment from 0% to 100%.

-## Security on protected branches
-
-A strict security model is enforced when pipelines are executed on
-[protected branches](../../user/project/protected_branches.md).
-
-The following actions are allowed on protected branches only if the user is
-[allowed to merge or push](../../user/project/protected_branches.md#using-the-allowed-to-merge-and-allowed-to-push-settings)
-on that specific branch:

-- Run pipelines using triggers.
-- Trigger manual actions on existing pipelines.
-- Retry or cancel existing jobs (using the Web UI or pipelines API).
-
-**Variables** marked as **protected** are accessible only to jobs that
-run on protected branches, preventing untrusted users getting unintended access to
-sensitive information like deployment credentials and tokens.
-
-**Runners** marked as **protected** can run jobs only on protected
-branches, avoiding untrusted code to be executed on the protected runner and
-preserving deployment keys and other credentials from being unintentionally
-accessed. In order to ensure that jobs intended to be executed on protected
-runners will not use regular runners, they must be tagged accordingly.
