Indented.Build

Indented.Build centralises the build processes / scripts used by my modules.

The goal of this module is to act as a means of accessing and executing a well maintained set of steps which can apply across a very large module base (public and private).

My build process avoids use of dedicate build task runners such as psake or Invoke*Build on the basis that managing execution of the process is the smallest problem. The process is a bunch of sequentially executed functions with a very short overall build time.

The executor can only be used with PowerShell 5.0 or higher.
