+## Custom pipelines
+
+When using the packaging pipeline, developers cannot put their CI/CD automation
+in `.gitlab-ci.yml` anymore, as the CI config path points to the
+ci-package-builder definition.
+
+However, developers can put their jobs in the
+`debian/apertis/local-gitlab-ci.yml` file and have them executed in a child
+pipeline whenever the main packaging pipeline is executed. This is specially
+handy to run tests before the actual packaging process begins.
