Allow an Azure DevOps pipeline to be run against a specific commit

[ValdisThomann]

Background

We run end-to-end tests in an Azure DevOps pipeline at the end of an Octopus deployment. We need to target the specific git commit of the end-to-end tests that align with the packages that have been deployed by the pipeline.

Results

Allows the user to optionally provide a git commit hash/id against which to run the Azure DevOps pipeline. If this parameter is left blank it will default to the latest commit.

Pre-requisites

• [x] Id should be a GUID that is not 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
  • NOTE If you are modifying an existing step template, please make sure that you do not modify the Id property (updating the Id will break the Library sync functionality in Octopus).
• [x] Version should be incremented, otherwise the integration with Octopus won't update the step template correctly
• [x] Parameter names should not start with $
• [x] Step template parameter names (the ones declared in the JSON, not the script body) should be prefixed with a namespace so that they are less likely to clash with other user-defined variables in Octopus (see this issue). For example, use an abbreviated name of the step template or the category of the step template).
• [x] LastModifiedBy field must be present, and (optionally) updated with the correct author
• [x] The best practices documented here have been applied

(Not applicable)

• [ ] If a new Category has been created:
  • [ ] An image with the name {categoryname}.png must be present under the step-templates/logos folder
  • [ ] The switch in the humanize function in gulpfile.babel.js must have a case statement corresponding to it
