如何将最新提交推送到 devops 构建管道的外部远程源？

Question

I have 2 separate code repos containing the same code, origin 1 and origin 2. Our development team only pushes new code to origin 1, but I need to build our code from origin 2.

How can I keep the two origin remotes up to date automatically using Azure Devops CI?

My thought is to use a Azure Devops Build Pipeline connected to Origin 1 and in the build add Origin 2 as a remote, and then push the changes, but the devops pipeline seems to detach the head when cloning the latest changes.

Any idea how to automate this?

Right now I have:

- task: CmdLine@2
  inputs:
    script: |
      echo Adding git remote
      git remote add origin2 https://myRemoteoriginGit
      git push origin2 my-branch
    failOnStderr: true

In Origin 1 pipeline, you could try the following script in PowerShell Task.

- task: PowerShell@2
  inputs:
    targetType: 'inline'
    script: |
      $branch="$(Build.SourceBranch)".replace("refs/heads/","")
      git remote add Reponame https://PAT@dev.azure.com/org/project/_git/reponame
      git checkout $branch
      git push Reponame $branch -f

You could set All branches to trigger this build ( CI triggers ).

Then this script will update the changes to the corresponding branch in Origin 2.

The devops pipeline seems to detach the head when cloning the latest changes.

According to your description, i guess what you see is this text：

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.

If yes, this is how Azure DevOps works. Nothing is wrong.

Here is a ticket , you could refer to it.

Hope this helps.
