Copied from the MR:
When a job needs a skipped job, it needs to be skipped. This bug was fixed for
when: on_success
jobs (#31526 (closed)), but not forwhen: delayed
andwhen: manual
. This MR fixes this.
What might happen if this goes wrong?
Jobs that need to run may not run. Or, jobs that should not need to run may run.
What can we monitor to detect problems with this?
Not sure...
