What's new for Azure DevOps Server

  • Cikk

Azure DevOps Server 2022 | Azure DevOps Server 2020 | Azure DevOps Server 2019

You can use Azure DevOps Server, previously named Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS), to manage your product lifecycle, reduce risks, and improve team efficiency. Updates are made every few weeks to the cloud-hosted version, Azure DevOps Services. These updates are then rolled up and made available through quarterly updates to the on-premises Azure DevOps Server and TFS. To understand the differences between the hosted and on-premises versions, see A tour of services provided with Azure DevOps Services and TFS.

To learn about what's new with the cloud service offering, see Azure DevOps Services features update.

You can download the latest version of Azure DevOps Server from the Visual Studio download page.

Summary of new features

Bug fixes

Code

  • If a repository is deleted while Search is indexing it, the job fails with GitRepositoryNotFoundException.
  • During the first indexing of a TFVC repository, there might be folder drops and indexing might take a long time.
  • The Search indexing patch job might fail if there are many files that fail to download.
  • When a code file fails indexing and continues to fail during retries, you see "Lots of files rejected by Elasticsearch, failing this job" error messages indefinitely.
  • Customers see a permanent message of "One or more projects in your account are still being indexed, and so you are not seeing any results." With this update, the error appears a maximum of 10 times for a given set of files.

Work

  • No links are shown on a work item if there's a TFVC link from the work item and the TFVC artifact was deleted.
  • Identity information might not correctly synchronize to work items.
  • Allowed Values custom fields might not work when ALLOWEDVALUES is defined inside a WHEN rule.

Build and release

  • The build summary doesn't show associated work items if the associated changes are empty.
  • Pausing a build definition doesn't pause gated builds.
  • The Local path under $(build.sourcesDirectory) gets unexpectedly populated when configuring the Get Sources step of a build definition.
  • Save of a release definition gives a "service endpoint not available or not accessible" error, even when there's no change to the endpoints used in the tasks.
  • In the release pipeline, rearranging the order in which parallel environments are visualized isn't possible. To fix this situation, an option was added in the environment panel of the editor to move an environment up/down.
  • A SQL exception might occur when queuing an agent pool maintenance job to an agent with a previous version.

Test

  • The Run Timeout test setting isn't being honored.

Deprecated features

For known issues, see Known issues.

Deprecated features

The following features have been deprecated with the indicated version.

Azure DevOps Server 2019

The Team Foundation plug-in for Office is deprecating support for Microsoft Project and Microsoft PowerPoint with Storyboarding. Project integration and the TFSFieldMapping command are not supported for Azure DevOps Server 2019 nor for Azure DevOps Services. The plug-in will continue to support Microsoft Excel.

The Configuration Features wizard is deprecated.

We will be removing the client object model and SOAP APIs in future versions Although Azure DevOps Server 2019 continues to support the work item tracking SOAP API and the client object model, it will be removed in the next major version of Azure DevOps Server. You can find more information in our documentation.

Impact of upgrading to Azure DevOps Server 2019 on tasks: Windows Machine File Copy and PoweShell on Target Machine Machine groups under Test Hub was deprecated in TFS 2017 RTM. With Azure DevOps Server 2019, the Machine groups service is no longer available. This will impact the users of 'Windows Machine File Copy' task version 1.* and 'PowerShell on Target Machines' task version 1.*. For your pipelines to continue working,

You have to switch to 'Windows Machine File Copy' task version 2.* and provide the full fqdn for the target machine instead of just the machine name.

And switch to 'Powershell on Target Machine' task version 2.* or later and provide the full fqdn of the machine or machine name followed by the Windows Remote Management ports (http/https). For example, targetMachine:5985 or targetMachine:5986
