April 2026: Delivered a robust fix for incremental builds in microsoft/AL-Go when projects reference app folders outside their directory. Replaced a fragile SubString-based path hack with a proper path-resolution approach (ConvertTo-RepoRelativePath), ensuring repo-relative appFolders match the baseline's skip list and preventing unnecessary re-downloads and rebuilds of unmodified apps across PRs. Added two Pester tests to validate nested (../) layouts and standard in-project layouts; all existing tests pass. This reduces CI time, network, and compute usage, improving reliability of incremental builds in multi-folder repositories. Technologies demonstrated include PowerShell, path resolution using Join-Path -Resolve, cross-platform path handling, and Pester testing.
