GitVersion on VS 2019 image

@FeodorFitsner just wanted to give you a heads up on this...

What version of GitVersion were you planning on installing on the base image, and also what implementation of GitVersion, i.e. .Net Global Tool, Full Framework etc?

The reason that I ask is that there is a known issue with the 5.1.2 release of GitVersion specifically when running on AppVeyor. The team are working on fixing this, but just wanted to make sure that this didn't immediately bite you once you release the base image.

[FeodorFitsner]

Thanks for the heads up! Indeed, we are installing the latest version available. We'll fix the version for now.

@FeodorFitsner let us know if you run into any problems with it!

Am getting the issue @gep13 mentioned today. I'm not installing GitVersion in an install: part, just using the version in the image. Get the error:

ERROR [12/12/19 10:29:28:01] An unexpected error occurred:

On image we've got 5.1.1, not 5.1.2. Does it have the issue too?

[jameswoodley]

Seems to I'm afraid. Following some advice on Stackoverflow and other Google articles I could find, the best bet was to fix to version 4.0.0 - can confirm this has worked, I haven't gone searching up the versions to find the one that breaks it

[FeodorFitsner]

So, all 5.x versions don't work in AppVeyor environment?

[jameswoodley]

Just tried it with 5.0.0 and it failed so without manually going through each version, I'd argue yes, anything 5.x.x doesn't work in AppVeyor
