Push a commit without triggering a pipeline in gitlab

If for some reason you don’t wan’t to to trigger a ci pipeline when doing a push to a gitlab remote you could add [ci skip] or [skip ci] to the last commits message.

Another way is to use git push options git push -o ci.skip which is available since git 2.10.
