Description

Description

Currently you have to properly configure your push url to the v2 endpoint. For some nuget servers (like TFS/VSTS) this URL it not really easy to guess (In fact it took quite a while for myself to figure it out).

To improve experience for newcomers I suggest the following:

When a v3 URL is given we do not try to "guess" anything but find the correct url via index.json, by using the url with the type @type=PackagePublish/2.0.0. We basically have most of the code for this already in place. It is basically a matter of refactoring and using the existing functionality when pushing.

Expected behavior

paket push just works with a v3 url

Actual behavior

You have to use fiddler and nuget.exe to figure it out

Known workarounds

Know the correct url for your server

Research direction

Start with the existing Paket push implementation and the functionality that reads a NuGet v3 index.json. Trace how the PackagePublish/2.0.0 URL is discovered and used during pushing. Done means paket push accepts a v3 URL and selects the publish endpoint without requiring users to know the server's v2 URL.
