Is what's needed here a "MSBuild finder"? ISTR I have written such a thing in the past, so I can dig out the code for that.

Thanks for this - the AD integration is very difficult to get right for lots of reasons: * It was the victim of a huge low-quality commit prior to any...

Excuse the ignorance here, I am not really familiar with the way this stuff is used (and it doesn't seem very consistent anyway!) Is this the basic idea: AD contains...

I don't think there's a URL which just lets you fetch a file like this - you'd be expected to either use a Git client to talk to the repository,...

I don't know the history of it because I wasn't involved in the project that far back, but Git repo names are perhaps not as obvious a choice as UUIDs...

I think there are two separate parts to upgrading Git in Bonobo: 1. Upgrading the Git tools in app_data, which is probably mostly just a matter of replacing the files...

Yes, I think in general it would be a good idea to add an *additional* way of finding the user, rather than having something which overrides or replaces any of...

I'm not really familiar with what this looks like when it's running, but I agree that we shouldn't log things that look like errors if the system is running normally,...

It could well be that the code has suffered from that sort of 'wikipedia effect', where bits that made sense on their own have been assembled into something completely incomprehensible....
