az pipelines create ignores --repository when it refers to a different project than --project

[CMihalcik]

Attempting to create a pipeline in one project using a yaml file in a git repo in another project fails.

Prerequisites

Two projects in the same organization with AzureDevOps git repos with the same name,

• sourceProject
  • aRepo
    • yaml pipeline file
• targetProject
  • aRepo

Steps to Reproduce

Note that $yamlRepo refers to a repo in sourceProject while $project refers to targetProject

Run

organization='https://dev.azure.com/org/'
project='targetProject'
yamlRepo=https://[email protected]/org/sourceProject/_git/aRepo

az pipelines create \
	--name "$pipelineName" \
	--folder-path "$pipelineFolder" \
	--repository "$yamlRepo" \
	--repository-type 'tfsgit' \
	--branch "$yamlBranch" \
	--description "$description" \
	--organization "$organization" \
	--project "$project" \
	--yaml-path "$yamlPath" \
	--skip-first-run true

and then

az pipelines show --name $pipelineName --folder-path $pipelineFolder --project $project --query 'repository.url'

Expected

The URL output from the last command will match $yamlRepo

Observed

The URL output from the last command points at aRepo in targetProject. Removing --skip-first-run true will cause az pipeline create to fail with a validation error when trying to first run the newly created pipeline.
