 There are a few rules that apply to usage of refs policy:
 
-1. `only` and `except` are exclusive. If both `only` and `except` are defined in job specification only `only` is taken into account.
+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` and `except` allow for specify repository path to filter jobs for forks.
+The repository path can be used to have jobs executed only for parent repository.

+```yaml
+job:
+  only:
+    - branches@gitlab-org/gitlab-ce
+  except:
+    - master@gitlab-org/gitlab-ce

+The above will run `job` for all branches, except master on `gitlab-org/gitlab-ce` repository only.

 ### tags
 `tags` is used to select specific runners from the list of all runners that are allowed to run this project.
