Build sources directory is not cleaned if it contains other Git repositories #324

Closed michael-baker closed 7 years ago

michael-baker commented 7 years ago

In my setup I have a TFS 2017 build definition pointing at a Git repository.

During the build execution other Git repositories are fetched and dropped into the Build.SourcesDirectory via custom scripts.

The next time I queue a build it will fail as the source directory is not cleaned as "git clean -fdx" is not enough. As my sources directory contains other .git folders the clean command needs to be "git clean -ffdx" to really really force the clean to occur.

Example:

C:\agent\_work\4\s>git clean -fdx
Skipping repository Foo/
Skipping repository Bar/
Skipping repository Baz/
Skipping repository _BUILD_215248575/
C:\agent\_work\4\s>git clean -ffdx
Removing Foo/
Removing Bar/
Removing Baz/
Removing _BUILD_215248575/
