Fixes #1430 - gitreleasenotes step.

[dazinator]

Corrected path to git release notes to fix build.

LGTM!

@dazinator I am surprised that this addition is needed, but I suspect that it is due to changes in the way that NuGet Addins/Tools are resolved.

This changed in a recent version of Cake.

[gep13]

@dazinator yeah, that didn't work :-(

The correct path to the file is:

tools\GitReleaseNotes.0.7.0\tools\GitReleaseNotes.exe

[gep13]

@dazinator Can I suggest using something like this:

FilePath gitReleaseNotesPath = Context.Tools.Resolve("GitReleaseNotes.exe");

Which will return:

C:/github_local/organisations/gittools/GitVersion/tools/GitReleaseNotes.0.7.0/tools/GitReleaseNotes.exe

To save having to hard code the path?

[dazinator]

Odd - that's what the path is for me locally:

I'll change it to your suggestion :-)

can we use the cake tool as this? https://cakebuild.net/api/Cake.Common.Tools.GitReleaseNotes/GitReleaseNotesAliases/

@dazinator I am going to go out on a limb and say that you have got an old version of Cake locally on your machine.

If you go into the tools folder and then the Cake folder and right click on the Cake.exe, what version does it say you have?

That is definitely something to consider. There are actually a few places in the current build script that is using Start.Process, when there is a Cake DSL that could help.

I would suggest that as an enhancement once the main piece of work is done here.
