Change the *nix packaging over with the following changes:
Package name (as used by e.g. apt):
Non-preview releases are namedpowershell
Preview releases are named powershell-preview
Installation path:
No longer looks like /opt/microsoft/powershell/6.1.0/ or /opt/microsoft/powershell/6.1.0-preview.1/
Non-previews go to a path like /opt/microsoft/powershell/6/
Previews go to a path like /opt/microsoft/powershell/6-preview/
Path to executable symlink:
Allows SxS with preview
Non-previews linked to /usr/bin/pwsh or /usr/local/bin/pwsh on macOS
Previews linked to /usr/bin/pwsh-preview or /usr/local/bin/pwsh-preview on macOS

Reduce PR build time by 5 minutes by:
Having Packaging as a separate build job in a matrix -> runs in parallel in PR builds because the Microsoft account is a paid account that allows that (at no additional costs)
Not caching the dotnet folder anymore, which is too large and the overhead of zipping/unzipping/upload/download does not pay off (and fails in forked builds that are on a free AppVeyor account due to the size).
Setting the environment variable DOTNET_SKIP_FIRST_TIME_EXPERIENCE to 1 because the initialization of the dotnet CLI cache (1 minute) does not pay off for the whole build.
The total build time of builds on a fork that is on a free AppVeyor account and therefore does not have parallelism, remains the same due to the time saving of redundant caching.
This is just a simple example of what we can easily achieve, we could continue this pattern and split the test runs as per the referenced issue to bring PR builds down to 10 minutes (but this will incur an increase for fork builds on free AppVeyor accounts)
To support PowerShell modules built with .NET Windows Compatibility Pack, we decided that it was best to ship the WCP assemblies with PS Core. This also adds many new .NET APIs be default while only adding ~3.5 MB additional disk footprint (to a ~137 MB install currently).
Also update the build to adopt the official .NET Core 2.1.
The main purpose of this was to enable full symbols for windows release build.
Also makes explicit where we are optimizing and where we are not optimizing due to https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/issues/29700
Ubuntu 17.04 is EOL, so we need to update our packaging for Ubuntu 17.10. This updates the package script and build.psm1 to use 17.10 rather than 17.04.
* Build Update
- Change `TargetFramework` to `netcoreapp2.1` and removed unnecessary `RuntimeFrameworkVersion` from `PowerShell.Common.props`
- Update dotnet SDK to 2.1.300-rc1-008662
- Update `TypeGen` target in `Build.psm1` to work with 2.1
- Rename macOS runtime to `osx-x64` as the old build logic expects 10.12 and breaks running on 10.13 system.
- Remove `PackageReference` to `System.Memory` as it's part of dotnetcore 2.1
- Update search for `crossgen` executable to find the matching version
* Test Update
- Update test tools `WebListener` to latest `asp.net core`
- Marked `AuthHeader Redirect` tests as `Pending` due to change in CoreFX
The comparison to test if we were using sudo was failing when running as root. We would then run -v, and get a bad error message. fixing the comparison.
Update 'Get-ChangeLog' to make it more accurate
Use "||" as the delimiter instead of "|", so it works for commit message that has the pipeline operator in it.
Handle merges that create a merge node in history.
Do not treat powershell team members as external contributors.
Add meta properties to mac VSTS YAML
- Add a property to clean the build machine
- Add a property to set the format of the build name
- add a property to set which queue to run the build in
Since a PR added support to opt out of telemetry via an environment variable, we can remove the,
always intended to be a temporary, solution of deleting a file to opt out of telemetry since the
environment variable can be defined at the system level and exist before even installing PowerShell Core.
Because the variable is defined as opt out, a value of true, yes, or 1 means no telemetry is sent.
- Implementation of PowerShell/PowerShell-RFC#115 (If anything changes in the RFC, we will treat it as a bug, and fix it later)
- Update registry and directory paths to use 6 for the version for stable and 6-preview for a preview release
- Add checkbox to set path
- default checkbox to off for preview builds and on for stable builds
create a PowerShellPackage...ps1 that works with these VMs (vs our custom VM)
create a script to create the \powershell folder with correct permissions
a YML VSTS build definition
Fix#6332
This change renames log and logerror functions to a single Write-Log [$message] [-error] function to avoid conflicting with the log command on MacOS.
Clean build during the daily build to ensure MSI package is generated correctly
- Do another clean build directly before packaging to clean up files that test has added
Fixes#6315
make Linux packages use correct version scheme for preview releases
- Now uses <Major>.<Minor>.<Patch>~<PreviewName> instead of <Major>.<Minor>.<Patch>-<PreviewName> as the - was interpretted as an iteration of the release not a preview.
The script installpsh-debian only works for Ubuntu distributions. This PR adds support for Debian as well.
Related issue: #5700
* Remove support for Ubuntu 17.04 in installpsh-debian.sh
MSI: Make sure that file components are patchable
- avoid changing names and guids of components between builds as this prevents patch generation
- This required submitting the file generated by heat
- add code to make sure the generated file is not out of date
- add `wixpdb` output when creating `MSI` package
- capture `wixpdb` in official build
- clean up anything left behind from previous MSI builds before starting MSI build to prevent using dirty files.
- make sure MSI creation fails if there is an error
- ignore `.wixpdb` files in git
- Add functionality to `Start-NativeExecution` to
- only display output if there is an error
- log caller information
- WXS validation error fixes
- Remove unused `ExitDialog` to fix ICE82
- Add KeyPath to `SetPath` to fix ICE18
- Use `HKMU` which translates to `HKLM` to runtime to fix various validation errors about creating the shortcut
- Suppress Validation errors
- suppress ICE61, which is about same version upgrades being allowed
- suppress ICE57, caused by the shortcut not being installed per user
Remove the functions which generated Nuget packages for Windows.
Add function New-UnifiedNugetPackage to generate nuget packages for each assembly with unix and windows runtimes.
Add function New-NuSpec and New-ReferenceAssembly for creating the required items forNew-UnifiedNugetPackage.
Add a sample for cross platform project with conditional compilation for Linux.
Add function Publish-NugetToMyGet to publish nuget packages to powershell.myget.or
