Here is our situation-- sometimes we need to run a vNext build without needing to pull any source code from TFS server.
But we don't want to change the workspace mappings. Is there a related setting simply ignore or disable the get source step in the build definition. Unlike any other task, the "Get sources" task added automatically when you create a new build definition, which is not able to disable or remove the task by right click it.
Any suggestion appreciated!
It's not able to directly disable/remove the Get Sources task. However, you could add a variable to achieve it:
Build.SyncSources = false
You can see from below screenshot, the Get Sources operation started and finished without fetching the data from TFS version control
Note: This variable works with TFS 2017 and above/VSTS vNext builds.
More detail info please take a look at this helpful blog.
I tried using agent.source.skip = true (instead of Build.SyncSources = false),
and it seems to keep the variables.
