Azure.DevOps.Repos.Branch.BranchPolicyRequireBuild

SYNOPSIS

The branch policy should be configured to require a build or CI pipeline to pass before changes can be merged into the default branch.

DESCRIPTION

The branch policy should be configured to require a build or CI pipeline to pass before changes can be merged into the default branch. This ensures that changes are validated before being merged into the default branch. This rule does not validate that the build or CI pipeline is configured correctly. It only validates that a build or CI pipeline is configured.

Mininum TokenType: ReadOnly
