This removes some of the last mentions of the AppVeyor name. Don't change the title, we don't want the word to appear in the CLs
Also problem: the last references are in the changelogs but I don't want to modify them without committee approval.
## PR Context
it was removed, #8686
Split Windows CI into the following Jobs
1. Combine Build and xUnit, which published build artifact
1. Elevated CI tests
1. Unelevated CI test
1. Elevated everything else tests
1. Unelevated everything else tests
1. Package build and test
1. Verify xUnit result
## PR Context
Before this test:
- A CI run would take ~14 minutes
- A Feature run would take ~30 minutes
After this change, it always runs all tests and takes ~20 minutes.
Job `Unelevated everything else tests` is the long poll, taking ~4 minutes longer than the next shortest job. We should be able to get this back down to ~15 if we split that test job somehow.
Remove references to uninitialized variable
regressed in #8822
## PR Context
Some artifacts never got published because the conditions would never be true
Refactors `travis.ps1`. Important for maintainers: I removed the webhook and badge stuff as neither exist anymore. I also merged the build and test phase with the bootstrap phase.
Remoting relies on Windows native crypto APIs to pass a secure string. Of course these APIs don't work on non-Windows. However, the remoting code does not expect this to fail so ends up in a hang waiting for an event that never happens.
Have not figured out how to return an error to the user in the case `Get-Credential` is called within a PSSession. Currently it just quietly closes the remote connection. @PaulHigin can you give a pointer to where this code would exist? Debugging the current code, it has a bunch of error handlers which just result in the pssession being closed and not sure where throwing is appropriate.
Fix https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/8723
## PR Context
Fix is to provide implementations of the Win32 native pinvoke apis that throw an exception. The reason to do it this way is that there's a bunch of code that calls some of the APIs of the wrapper .Net class to setup structures that eventually get passed to the win32 api. Throwing in the managed class causes other things to fail early that should work on non-Windows.
Fix for #6741 Allow .exe files to be used as binary modules. Basically anywhere a .dll could be used with modules, you can now use a .exe file. Also did a little clean up, replacing constant strings with the StringLiteral values instead.
Added feature to classify experimental features in change log. Also fixed an issue with reporting all PRs with missing tags together.
## PR Context
Updates to the script which generates the change log.
Add binskim to coordinated build and increase timout
## PR Context
Total timeout for the old build was 220 minutes.
The portions before the compliance take ~30 minutes.
So, I went with 180.
I also found I missed binskim when doing this work
Updating the issue template for documentation to show the new location of PowerShell-Docs on the MicrosoftDocs repo.
## PR Context
Cleaning up references post migration of docs to MicrosoftDocs repo. While the redirect works, showing the correct location is preferred in the long run.
Refactor Unified Release Build
- Make injecting the nuget.config a template
- Make setting the version variable a template
- Add parameters to templates where needed
- Run defender scan before uploading linux packages (and rename step to plain english)
