    Any update on when we might see the final RTW? I thought there might be something announced or mentioned during yesterday’s Ignite but there wasn’t. It’s been a month since the RC2 and there was a month between the RC1 so it seems that it would be safe to expect the RTW already or very soon.

      Hi Andre, we plan on releasing by the end of October.

    According to the Feature Timeline the “Skipping stages in a YAML pipeline” feature that was delivered in Azure DevOps service Sprint 162 update on 16 December 2019 (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/release-notes/2019/sprint-162-update#skipping-stages-in-a-yaml-pipeline) should be included for Azure DevOps Sever 2020, but one of our developers has reported that they don’t see the “Stages to run” on the “Run pipeline” dialog on a multi-stage YAML pipeline..

    I’m running Azure DevOps Server 2019 on-prem and need State Transition rules. Is there a plan for 2019 to get that enhancement? Does 2020 RC2 (or the intended RTW) have State Transitions?

      The preview feature regarding the Pipeline decorator is already fixed and will be in the final release. We are investigating the market place extensions install issue and the tfx command line publish issue. We are planning to resolve these issues as soon as we complete the investigation. Thank you for submitting these issues!

      Thank you for reporting. A patch has been posted to your Developer Community ticket and the fix will be included in the next release

    Hi,
    I see that mermaid diagram support is still not available on wikis. Can you confirm when this is going to be available in Azure DevOps Server? 2020 RTW, 2021, or never… ?
    Thanks

      Hi John,

      Mermaid will not be available in Azure DevOps Server 2020. We may consider to include in future updates.

    • Dan HellemMicrosoft employee

      The WIT Client OM (SOAP APIs) are deprecated but not removed in Azure DevOps 2020. So they will continue to work.
