Impact
REQUIRED: Choose either Tooling Impact or Customer Impact (or both). At least one checkbox must be selected.
Tooling Impact
Updates build module (build.psm1) to skip dotnet-format installation in CI/CD (Azure DevOps) environments. Updates MSIX pipeline template with corrected Azure Pipeline variable references (using variables['NAME'] syntax instead of string interpolation). These changes prevent unnecessary tool installations in CI and ensure more reliable pipeline condition evaluation.
Customer Impact
Regression
REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.
This is not a regression.
Testing
Verified cherry-pick completed successfully with conflict resolution. Changes are isolated to build scripts and CI/CD templates. The dotnet-format installation logic is now properly gated behind TF_BUILD environment variable check.
Risk
REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.
Medium risk: Build system changes affecting CI/CD pipelines and dotnet tool installation, but changes are isolated and well-scoped. The dotnet-format installation is now properly skipped in CI environments (TF_BUILD), and MSIX pipeline conditions are fixed for better variable reference handling. No runtime impact on user-facing functionality.
Merge Conflicts
build.psm1 had one conflict due to missing dotnet-format installation code in release/v7.4. This was resolved by accepting the incoming change from the PR, which adds the Find-Dotnet call and wraps the dotnet-format installation in a TF_BUILD environment check to skip installation in CI environments.
