Setup

  • Select GitHub.
  • Click the "My repositories" dropdown and change it to "All repositories".
  • Type microsoft/STL into the filter and wait for the repo to appear (this is slow). Select it.
  • Choose "Existing Azure Pipelines YAML file".
  • From the popup, select the appropriate branch and pathname to the pipeline YAML file in the repo, e.g., main and /azure-pipelines.yml.
  • This will display "Review your pipeline YAML" with the contents of azure-pipelines.yml.
  • Click "Run" which will display "Creating pipeline..." and will then start a CI build.
  • From the vertical ellipsis, select "Rename/Move" and choose an appropriate pipeline name, e.g., "STL-CI".
• In README.md, update the [Pipelines] link, as the definitionId will have changed.
