Hi,

I agree, I currently see no point in running the entire pipeline
again.

But we need to watch out for the job conditional rules. For instance,
both of these pipelines are about the exact same commit:

   https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/pipelines/275925246
   https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/pipelines/275925289

But one has 113, while the other has 119 jobs.  Also, we may want
to check if tags also trigger new (unnecessary) pipelines.
