Find-Module does not allow parameters MinimumVersion and AllVersions to be specified together

[tristanbarcelon]

If I'm synchronizing PSGallery packages to a private Azure Devops feed, I would like to be able to copy versions of PSGallery modules newer than the latest version stored in private Azure Devops feed. Hence, we are specifying a MinimumVersion to Find-Module in order to limit results. Unfortunately, specifying MinimumVersion will only return the latest version, rather than all versions greater than or equal to MinimumVersion. I would prefer avoiding AllVersions parameter because some modules such as dbatools have a lot of versions to sort over.

Steps to reproduce

Find-Module -Name 'aws.tools.common' -MinimumVersion '4.1.36' -Repository PSGallery -AllVersions

Expected behavior

Version              Name                                Repository           Description
-------              ----                                ----------           -----------
4.1.38               AWS.Tools.Common                    PSGallery            The AWS Tools for PowerShell lets develop...
4.1.37               AWS.Tools.Common                    PSGallery            The AWS Tools for PowerShell lets develop...
4.1.36               AWS.Tools.Common                    PSGallery            The AWS Tools for PowerShell lets develop...

Actual behavior

Find-Module: You cannot use the parameter AllVersions with RequiredVersion, MinimumVersion or MaximumVersion in the same command.

You can get this behavior in PowerShellGetv3, and example of this is:
Find-PSResource -Name aws.tools.common -Version [4.1.36, ]
Another way to get this with the current v2 behavior is:
Find-Module -Name aws.tools.common -AllVersions | where {$_.Version -ge "4.1.36"}

Nice syntax on V3 and this would work pretty well with the list of modules I'm synchronizing which looks like this:

I based the versioning structure upon my understanding of nuget versioning range https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/concepts/package-versioning#version-ranges. Unfortunately, when using Find-PSResource on v3 with any module that has a single version, its behavior is different from one specified in nuget versioning range. I had to convert '4.1.16' to '[4.1.16,]' for it to behave like >=. @StevenBucher98, is that the intended behavior?
