Pull Request Overview
This PR backports #26414 to release/v7.4, moving package validation from the release pipeline to the package pipeline where packages are built. This reorganization allows package validation to run earlier in the process and improves pipeline organization.

- Adds
setReleaseTagAndChangelogas a dependency for thePublishMsixstage (brought in from master during cherry-pick resolution)

Impact
Tooling Impact
Moves package validation from the release pipeline to the package pipeline, improving pipeline organization and allowing package validation to run earlier in the process.
Regression
This is an infrastructure improvement to reorganize pipeline stages.
Testing
Verified by:
Risk
High risk due to changes in release pipeline infrastructure, but necessary for better pipeline organization. The change improves maintainability by moving package validation to where packages are built rather than in the release pipeline.
Merge Conflicts
The following file had conflicts during cherry-pick:
.pipelines/PowerShell-Release-Official.ymlLine: 360 (PublishMsix stage dependsOn)
Conflict Type: Multi-line dependency format vs single-line
Root Cause: The conflict arose because commit 5e05175 (authored by Justin Chung @jshigetomi on Oct 9, 2025, titled "Make MSIX publish stage dependent on SetReleaseTagandContainerName stage") added the
setReleaseTagAndChangelogdependency to thePublishMsixstage in master, but this commit was never backported to release/v7.4. This appears to have been a direct commit to master rather than a PR.Original State:
dependsOn: PushGitTagAndMakeDraftPublic(single dependency)dependsOn:with bothsetReleaseTagAndChangelogandPushGitTagAndMakeDraftPublic(multi-line format)Resolution: Accepted the incoming change from master, which includes the
setReleaseTagAndChangelogdependency. This brings the v7.4 branch in line with master's improved stage dependency chain, ensuring MSIX publishing occurs after both the release tag/changelog is set AND the GitHub draft is made public.Manual Changes: None beyond resolving the conflict markers. The
setReleaseTagAndChangelogstage already exists in release/v7.4, so adding it as a dependency is safe and improves the pipeline's execution order.Note: PR 26414's only actual change to this section was removing trailing whitespace from the
dependsOn:line. The additionalsetReleaseTagAndChangelogdependency came along as part of the cherry-pick from master due to commit 5e05175 which was never backported.
