Increasing limit of parallel keyword to 200
Proposal
This has been discussed in this issue but perhaps we can revisit this based on the last comment and request received from a customer ZD(GitLab internal). The parallel keyword is currently limited to between 2 and 50
. We should consider the ability to expand this.
Specific scenario where this would be good to have in the request mentioned in ZD(GitLab internal) is that this limit is causing customer problems when they need to run more than 50 jobs in a matrix (they have a limit on the number of workers on the GitLab runner).
use-case is building a whole bunch of images that are using the same repository, they've got a matrix across many different projects in the same repo. They actually having to reduce jobs to move forward with a planned deployment.
