We are also intermitently seeing this on CNTK GPU 2.3 when calling via C# API. Relevant API: ``` System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. --->...

@axmand You are effectively executing synchronously, while possibly hijacking many threads (and so hurting performance). Just turning into symple synchronous loop would be much better. I cannot recall if CNTK...

We might want to try investigate following tools: * https://github.com/BetaHuhn/repo-file-sync-action * https://medium.com/swlh/how-to-auto-sync-update-from-one-github-repository-to-other-repository-using-github-workflow-6492f4830d45

[Maestro](https://github.com/dotnet/arcade/blob/main/Documentation/Maestro.md) bot seems to update sources as well ([sample PR](https://github.com/dotnet/templating/commit/12a81f8495288f9e0bc14510938e1b76cdc6205b)) - we might want to have a quick look on its' capabilities as well

Should we consider blacklisting top level commands from allowed template names/shortnames?

There are multiple reasons why processing of a folder with large number of files to skip is taking notrivial processing and in short the best advice is to avoid such...

In other commands we should use the 'sync to async' wrapper: https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/blob/dbf884654f7559433c732267472fffd75db8e33c/src/Cli/dotnet/commands/ParseResultCommandHandler.cs#L8 It should grab the Cancellation token from context and Wait on the Task with that CancellationToken

Based on brainstroming session with @vlada-shubina those are the tasks we came up with: Investigations: - [ ] Get stats on usage of nondeterministic generators (Guid, Now, Port, Random) -...

Ideally `dotnet format` would be called as an implicit post action and would apply the formatting changes. Unfortunately `dotnet format` is quite slow due to need to perform project evaluation....

Other possible validation candidate: https://github.com/dotnet/templating/issues/3254 + localization should be validated for all locales and then during standard installation, only current (or best match) locale should be returned by `RunnableProjectGenerator.GetTemplatesAndLangpacksFromDir`
