No extension update notification

Your appveyor.yml publishes to a different gallery than previous versions. VSIX Gallery vs. Visual Studio Gallery. Users like myself currently have 2 options to upgrade:

1. Subscribe to the VSIX Gallery feed.
2. Download and install the artifact directly from appveyor.

I believe you can use tfx-cli to publish to the Visual Studio Marketplace (F.K.A. Gallery). Feel free to look over my vsts-btdf-tasks appveyor.yml for hints.

You cannot use tfx-cli to publish Visual Studio extensions. You can only publish VSTS/TFS extension to the marketplace using tfx-cli.

I use VSIXGallery.com for dev builds. Since the VSIX published there are from CI build, there is a chance of features not working. Hence, only when the I tested it on a couple of machines, I end up publishing in the marketplace.

Reasonable enough. When do expect you'll publish the latest to the Visual Studio Gallery?

[onlyutkarsh]

It's already in the Visual Studio Gallery - all Visual Studio extensions appear in the VSmarketplace after some time. So latest version is here. You should also see the notification about the update in the Visual Studio.
