Major update with new features and bug fixes
- Added a new tool (AzureDevOpsBackupUnzipTool) to the application, there let you unzip backups from .zip files based on the backup folder with the metadata files (.json), so the backups can be restored for a single project to save disk space vs unzipping all based on how many projects you have to backup, if you only need to restore a single project and not want to unzip the whole backup for all projects:
- Sample command:
.\AzureDevOpsBackupUnzipTool.exe --zipFile "C:\Temp\Test\master_blob.zip" --output "C:\Temp\Test\Test" --jsonFile "C:\Temp\Test\tree.json"
