# Configuration of your builds with .gitlab-ci.yml
From version 7.12, GitLab CI uses a [YAML](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML) file (**.gitlab-ci.yml**) for the project configuration.
It is placed in the root of your repository and contains definitions of how your project should be built.
The YAML file defines a set of jobs with constraints stating when they should be run.
The jobs are defined as top-level elements with a name and always have to contain the `script` clause:

The above example is the simplest possible CI configuration with two separate jobs,
where each of the jobs executes a different command.
Of course a command can execute code directly (`./configure;make;make install`) or run a script (`test.sh`) in the repository.

What is important, is that each job is run independently from each other.

### only and except
This are two parameters that allow for setting a refs policy to limit when jobs are built:
1. `only` defines the names of branches and tags for which job will be built.
2. `except` defines the names of branches and tags for which the job wil **not** be built.
There are a few rules that apply to usage of refs policy:
`only` and `except` are two parameters that set a refs policy to limit when
jobs are built:
1. `only` and `except` are inclusive. If both `only` and `except` are defined in job specification the ref is filtered by `only` and `except`.
1. `only` and `except` allow for using the regexp expressions.
1. `only` and `except` allow for using special keywords: `branches` and `tags`.
These names can be used for example to exclude all tags and all branches.
1. `only` defines the names of branches and tags for which the job will be
built.
2. `except` defines the names of branches and tags for which the job will
**not** be built.
There are a few rules that apply to the usage of refs policy:
* `only` and `except` are inclusive. If both `only` and `except` are defined
in a job specification, the ref is filtered by `only` and `except`.
* `only` and `except` allow the use of regular expressions.
* `only` and `except` allow the use of special keywords: `branches` and `tags`.
* `only` and `except` allow to specify a repository path to filter jobs for
forks.
In the example below, `job` will run only for refs that start with `issue-`,
whereas all branches will be skipped.
```yaml
job:
# use regexp
only:
- /^issue-.*$/ # use regexp
- /^issue-.*$/
# use special keyword
except:
- branches # use special keyword
- branches
```
1. `only` and `except` allow for specify repository path to filter jobs for forks.

### tags
`tags` is used to select specific runners from the list of all runners that are allowed to run this project.
During registration of a runner, you can specify the runner's tags, ie.: `ruby`, `postgres`, `development`.
`tags` allow you to run builds with runners that have the specified tags assigned:

`when` is used to implement jobs that are run in case of failure or despite the
failure.
`when` can be set to one of the following values:

1. `on_failure` - execute build only when at least one build from prior stages failed.
1. `on_success` - execute build only when all builds from prior stages

## Validate the .gitlab-ci.yml
Each instance of GitLab CI has an embedded debug tool called Lint.
You can find the link to the Lint in the project's settings page or use short url `/lint`.
You can find the link under `/ci/lint` of your gitlab instance.
## Skipping builds
There is one more way to skip all builds, if your commit message contains tag [ci skip]. In this case, commit will be created but builds will be skipped
If your commit message contains `[ci skip]`, the commit will be created but the
