Output from azd version azd version 0.8.0-beta.1 (commit 08209da7c22d28c6a123ef4e88d433132066b800)

Describe the bug My company requires separation of build, provision and deployment steps in our build pipeline. azd seems to support this scenario in the deployment step by using azd deploy --with-package. Currently, running azd provision without the source code available fails with an error. This does not make sense to me, as there should be not dependency on the source code to provision the bicep templates.
