1) Fork the qemu repository in gitlab to your account
2) Add a remote to your repo on your PC to point to the
   forked gitlab repo (git remote add ...)
3) Read docs/devel/ci-jobs.rst.inc - you basically want
   these two things:

  git config --local alias.push-ci "push -o ci.variable=QEMU_CI=1"
  git config --local alias.push-ci-now "push -o ci.variable=QEMU_CI=2"

4) If you now do a "git push-ci ..." to your forked repo,
   you should be able to see the CI pipelines there
