Azure-devops-docs: VSO refered me wrongly to this page, should be to a subpage

Created on 22 Feb 2019  Â·  3Comments  Â·  Source: MicrosoftDocs/azure-devops-docs

Hi,

My build: (id:8525995, account:mseng) failed which a promise of documentation on why shallow-cone might fail:

##[warning]Git checkout failed on shallow repository, this might because of git fetch with depth '1' doesn't include the checkout commit <anonymized>'. Please reference documentation (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=829603) 
4121

But this page doesn't seem to have this information. It seems the content moved to a sub-page (Pipeline options for git). It would be nice if either the parent doc can mention that the shallow-clone docs are in the sub-page or ideally the fwlink would be updated to shallow-fetch section in 'Pipeline options for Git' page

I was also linked here from the DevOps pipelines Build edit screen for the "Get Sources" task.

azure-devops-pipelines-build-edit-get-sources

The link should provide more information whether or not you want to "tag sources" but there is nothing on this page about "tagging".

Azure Devops link is https://aka.ms/ci-tagsources but redirects to this page currently titled "Build source repositories". IMGO it should redirect to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/repos/pipeline-options-for-git?view=azure-devops#label-sources
