toggle builds / pipelines only manually

[Kristian Rink]

Folks;

we're using gitlab all along with maven and some heavier Java/Vaadin
projects which even on more potent infrastructure take quite a while to
really build. Right now, with gitlab-ci configuration and configured
runners, the build happens after each commit to a project which is quite
heavy.

Is there a way to change this behaviour in a way so that builds only
happen either manually or on "some" events (such as merging branches or
somehow designated commits)?

TIA and all the best,
Kristian
