Error in Generated Migration Script for dotnet-ef 8.0.11

We have a dotnet project that we upgraded from dotnet 7 to dotnet 8. We also updated dotnet-ef from 7.0.2.0 to 8.0.11 in the pipeline that we use. This change has introduced a bug when generating migration scripts

Generated SQL script with version 8.0.11

IF NOT EXISTS (
    SELECT * FROM [__EFMigrationsHistory]
    WHERE [MigrationId] = N'myMigrationName'
)
BEGIN
    EXEC sp_rename N'[dbo].[oldTableName]', N'newTableName', 'OBJECT';
    DECLARE @defaultSchema sysname = SCHEMA_NAME();
    EXEC(N'ALTER SCHEMA [' + @defaultSchema + N'] TRANSFER [dbo].[newTableName];');
END;

IF NOT EXISTS (
    SELECT * FROM [__EFMigrationsHistory]
    WHERE [MigrationId] = N'migrationName2'
)
BEGIN
    EXEC sp_rename N'[dbo].[oldTableName2]', N'newTableName2', 'OBJECT';
    DECLARE @defaultSchema sysname = SCHEMA_NAME();
    EXEC(N'ALTER SCHEMA [' + @defaultSchema + N'] TRANSFER [dbo].[newTableName2];');
END;

This fails because the variable @defaultSchema is declared twice in the same SQL batch. Let's have a look at the old version SQL output:

Generated SQL script with version 7.0.20

IF NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM [__EFMigrationsHistory] WHERE [MigrationId] = N'migrationName2')
BEGIN
    EXEC sp_rename N'[dbo].[oldTableName2]', N'newTableName2';
    DECLARE @defaultSchema sysname = SCHEMA_NAME();
    EXEC(N'ALTER SCHEMA [' + @defaultSchema + N'] TRANSFER [dbo].[newTableName2];');
END;
GO

IF NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM [__EFMigrationsHistory] WHERE [MigrationId] = N'migrationName')
BEGIN
    EXEC sp_rename N'[dbo].[oldTableName]', N'newTableName';
    DECLARE @defaultSchema sysname = SCHEMA_NAME();
    EXEC(N'ALTER SCHEMA [' + @defaultSchema + N'] TRANSFER [dbo].[newTableName];');
END;
GO

Here you can see that besides the order of the migrations and some formatting, the new version is lacking the sql batch separator GO which is, essentially, the source of the problem

Steps to reproduce

define two EF migrations that both rename a table
generate migration SQL script with dotnet.ef 8.0.11
execute SQL script

Expected behavior

The script is executed successfully

Actual behavior

The deployment fails / Azure DevOps pipeline step SqlAzureDacpacDeployment fails with message ##[error]The variable name '@defaultSchema' has already been declared. Variable names must be unique within a query batch or stored procedure.Check out how to troubleshoot failures at https://aka.ms/sqlazuredeployreadme#troubleshooting-
