gitlab-ci: include of include

Hi,

I didn't find in the documentation if it's possible or not, so I'm not sure if it's a bug or a known limitation, but when I try it seems that my include of include part is ignored (also ignored in the CI Lint).

So I have this :

project my-generic-ci (ls -1)

common.yml
docker-build-mainbranch.yml
docker-build-minorbranch.yml
docker-build-tag.yml
docker-clean-mainbranch.yml
docker-clean-minorbranch.yml
docker-deploy-mainbranch-api.yml
docker-deploy-mainbranch-celery.yml
docker-deploy-mainbranch-redis.yml
docker-deploy-minorbranch-api.yml
docker-deploy-minorbranch-celery.yml
docker-deploy-minorbranch-redis.yml
docker-w-celery.yml
docker-wo-celery.yml
push-release.yml
README.md
unit-testing.yml

(I like to split in a smal parts, because the change between mainbranch/minorbranch are small, ex: my stages ordering are differents, and I can do a diff easily)

docker-w-celery.yml (the same for docker-wo-celery without some files)

---
include:
  - local: docker-build-mainbranch.yml # I've also tried using publish pages
  - local: docker-build-minorbranch.yml
  - local: docker-build-tag.yml
  - local: docker-clean-mainbranch.yml
  - local: docker-clean-minorbranch.yml
  - local: docker-deploy-mainbranch-api.yml
  - local: docker-deploy-minorbranch-api.yml
...

common.yml

stages:
  - docker_minorbranch_build
  - docker_minorbranch_clean
  - docker_minorbranch_clean_redis
  - docker_minorbranch_purge
  - docker_minorbranch_deploy_redis
  - docker_minorbranch_deploy
  - env_prep
  - unit_testing
  - code_quality
  - security_analysis
  - reporting
  - push_release
  - docker_mainbranch_build
  - docker_mainbranch_clean
  - docker_mainbranch_clean_redis
  - docker_mainbranch_purge
  - docker_mainbranch_deploy_redis
  - docker_mainbranch_deploy
  - docker_tag_build

project myproject-using-ci .gitlab-ci.yml :

---
include:
  - project: sav/myproject-ci
    ref: wip_refonte
    file: common.yml
  - project: sav/myproject-ci
    ref: wip_refonte
    file: unit-testing.yml
  - project: sav/myproject-ci  # This one is ignored
    ref: wip_refonte
    file: docker-w-celery.yml
...

Nothing in the log when playing the CI
