Was Get-FileHash
available in PowerShell version 3.0?
I'm assuming not, as it isn't listed in the 3.0 docs, but is for 4.0
As we still support PowerShell version 3.0, this isn't something I feel we should pull in I'll speak to the team about.
I've moved the issue for this over to the checksum repository. Rather than changing the way we calculate hashes, we're going to look at improving checksum.exe
so won't be progressing with this PR.
We appreciate you submitting it, @flcdrg. I'll leave this open for any further comments before closing it.
Description Of Changes
Allow use of the Get-FileHash cmdlet when running with versions of PowerShell that include it
Motivation and Context
Thsi should resolve the issue of checksums being unable to be verified for files greater than 2GB. It should also be faster.
