Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like to clone a repo I have access to

Describe the solution you'd like
parameters to support:

  1. src repo url
  2. clone to directory
  3. params to pass to git clone

Support for repo sources:

  1. github
  2. ADO

pre-requisites:
If git and GCM (>= GCM 2.1..2,) are not installed, install them first. We should check if PATH already contains git and GCM. If yes, but older versions: overwrite with supported git and gcm version.

setupTasks:
  - task: clone-repository-on-login
    inputs:
      src: "repo-url"
      cloneTo: "./path/"
      additionalOptions: "--flag --key val"
