rules overrides workflow:rules

rules overrides workflow:rules and doesn't merge with them. workflow:rules are evaluated first to create the pipeline or not. Then rules are evaluated for each job.

workflow:
  rules:
    - if: '$FORCE_GITLAB_CI'
    - if: '$CI_MERGE_REQUEST_IID'
      # REGEX IN VARIABLE
    - if: '$CI_COMMIT_BRANCH =~ $BRANCH_REGEX'

when-with-rules-over-workflow:
  script:
    - echo "testing when with rules over workflow"
  rules:
    - if: '$CI_MERGE_REQUEST_IID'
      when: manual

The when-with-rules-over-workflow: job will run on MRs only and not on the BRANCH_REGEX.
