It seems that the current agents of the Azure Pipeline pool
vs2017-win2016
are not actually Windows 2016, as thecmd.exe /c 'type [...]'
call contains the tell-tale... and the test fails that tries to verify that symbolic links are created with the correct type (on Windows, symbolic links have a defined target type: directory or file).
Let's fix that by not using
cmd.exe /c 'type [...]'
to read the files (and thereby resolving the symbolic links), but by usinggit config -f [...]
instead (which also resolves the symbolic links).A more complete fix would be to add a test helper that verifies the actual type of the symbolic link; The advantage of the current approach is that it tests the code flow that we actually need to keep working.
