This technique can be very powerful in generating pipelines targeting content that changed or to

## Limitations
A parent pipeline can trigger many child pipelines, but a child pipeline cannot trigger
further child pipelines. See the [related issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/29651)

+When triggering dynamic child pipelines, if the job containing the CI config artifact is not a predecessor of the
+trigger job, the child pipeline will fail to be created, causing also the parent pipeline to fail.
