'How to not trigger pipeline when creating a new branch from an existing branch in git?
I have a particular stage in my .gitlab-ci.yml file that I want to run when I push commit on some particular branch. But I don't want to run it when creating a new branch from an existing branch ( say master ). Is there any way to do it ? I tried checking it using ${CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE} environment variable. But it has the value "push" for both the times when pushing commits as well as creating a branch.

Assuming your "particular branch" has a specific name or even a specific pattern in naming, then you can make use of the only option.
As per one of the examples, you can even use regular expression to denote a pattern for the ref that it matches on:
only:
- /^issue-.*$/
