我在 Azure CI 管道中实施 commitlint，但无法使用 --from 标签获取对另一个分支的引用以正常工作

Question

I am working with a yaml file in my .net core project in Azure DevOps which looks like this:

trigger:
- main

pool:
  vmImage: windows-latest

variables:
  solution: '**/*.sln'
  buildPlatform: 'Any CPU'
  buildConfiguration: 'Release'

stages:
- stage: LintCommitMessages
  jobs:
  - job: Validate
    displayName: Validate
    steps:
    - pwsh: |      
        npm install @commitlint/config-conventional @commitlint/cli
        npx commitlint --from refs/remotes/origin/main
      displayName: Validate commit message

I keep getting the following error message:

Anyone who has had the same issue?

I have tried most variations of the path that I can come up with so I must be misunderstanding how to enter this one completely.

I have also tried this variant and then the pipeline runs but it does not capture any of the errors that I try entering in the commit messages so everything passes through:

trigger:
- main

pool:
  vmImage: windows-latest

variables:
  solution: '**/*.sln'
  buildPlatform: 'Any CPU'
  buildConfiguration: 'Release'
  main_branch: ''

stages:
- stage: LintCommitMessages
  jobs:
  - job: lint
    pool:
      vmImage: ubuntu-latest
    displayName: Lint commit message
    steps:
    - script: npm install @commitlint/{config-conventional,cli}
      displayName: Install commitlint
    - script: |
        main_branch=$(git branch -a | grep origin/main$ || git branch -a | grep origin/master$)
        npx commitlint --from ${main_branch} --verbose
      displayName: Run commitlint

This is the result:

Answer 1

I found out the solution now and it was a setting in Azure DevOps for the pipeline. By navigating to the pipeline and then select edit you can then select triggers in the top right corner:

Trigger

You will then see a menu item named YAML and after clicking that you can select Get sources. At the bottom of the options that comes up to the right there is a choice called "Shallow fetch", you need to uncheck this one and then everything will work:-)
