Only one level -of nesting is supported. +### Nest `!reference` tags in `script`, `before_script`, and `after_script` + +> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/74792) in GitLab 14.8. + +You can nest `!reference` tags up to 10 levels deep in `script`, `before_script`, and `after_script` sections. Use nested tags to define reusable sections when building more complex scripts. For example: + +```yaml +.snippets: + one: + - echo "ONE!" + two: + - !reference [.snippets, one] + - echo "TWO!" + three: + - !reference [.snippets, two] + - echo "THREE!" + +nested-references: + script: + - !reference [.snippets, three] +``` + +In this example, the `nested-references` job runs all three `echo` commands. |
