Repro Steps & Context
Hello everyone, good morning.

I'm having issues with the build. My code is in Azure Repos, and I'm using App Center for the build. Locally, the code is working perfectly, and when I publish via Visual Studio to the Deployment Center, it also works perfectly. The problem lies in the CI process; when I commit to the master branch, the Deployment Center initiates synchronization to perform the build, and at this step, I'm encountering an exception.

Looking forward to hear from you.
Thanks in advance,

Start with ProjectFileHelpers.cs at GetXmlDocument line 82 and IsAzureBlazorWebAssemblyProject, then trace the call from ProbeAndFindProjectFileProvider.cs while reproducing the Oryx build against commit 6b27c2f8779ec0f86fcdabc7632c6f30f027403a. Done means platform detection no longer fails with the reported XmlException for this repository and the build behavior is verified.
