I would like to have only my "defined" repository with resource "azuredevops_git_repository" [MyRepo] and not have the system generated one uninitalized with project name [MyProject], is it possible somehow on code level ?
Provider : Terraform-azuredevops https://registry.terraform.io/providers/microsoft/azuredevops/latest/docs/resources/git_repository
resource "azuredevops_git_repository" "repo" {
project_id = azuredevops_project.project.id
name = "MyRepo"
default_branch = "refs/heads/develop"
initialization {
init_type = "Clean"
}
lifecycle {
ignore_changes = [
initialization,
]
}
}
resource "azuredevops_project" "project" {
name = "MyProject"
description = "MyDescription"
visibility = "private"
version_control = "Git"
work_item_template = "Agile"
}
Could you please help me to find and elaborate on this answer ?
Thank you in advance,
After I deleted the default repository from the Web UI of Azure DevOps, Terraform did not indicated any change on the code level, So I can not understand how can I prevent the "default" repository creation on code level e.g. by the resource "azuredevops_git_repository" or the project definition
as my knowledge, the Terraform-Azure DevOps provider can be used to configure Azure DevOps project in Microsoft Azure using Azure DevOps Service REST API.
For the create project rest api, there isn't a parameter to change the default repo name.
Thus here are two ways for your reference: 1.After creating a new project->do your shown 'create defined name repo' step, you could call corresponding delete repo rest api to delete the default repo (since a project needs at least one repo exists). 2.After creating a new project, you could directly rename the default repo by calling the rest api update repo.
I hope it could do some help.
