+- You are limited to use only the [CI predefined variables][variables] in the
+ `environment: name`. Any variables defined inside `script` will not work.
+- If the branch name contains special characters and you use the
+ `$CI_BUILD_REF_NAME` variable to dynamically create environments, there might
+ be complications during deployment. Follow the [issue 22849][ce-22849] for
