Windows 10: The Microsoft PowerShell-Docs repo is moving

Brink · Jan 7, 2019

On January 16, 2019 at 5:00PM PDT, the PowerShell-Docs repositories are moving from the PowerShellorganization to the MicrosoftDocs organization in GitHub.

The tools we use to build the documentation are designed to work in the MicrosoftDocs org. Moving the repository lets us build the foundation for future improvements in our documentation experience.

Impact of the move

During the move there may be some downtime. The affected repositories will be inaccessible during the move process. Also, the documentation processes will be paused. After the move, we need to test access permissions and automation scripts.

After these tasks are complete, access and operations will return to normal. GitHub automatically redirects requests to the old repo URL to the new location.

For more information about transferring repositories in GitHub, see About repository transfers.

If the transferred repository has any forks, then those forks will remain associated with the repository after the transfer is complete.

All Git information about commits, including contributions, are preserved.

All of the issues and pull requests remain intact when transferring a repository.

All links to the previous repository location are automatically redirected to the new location.

When you use git clone, git fetch, or git push on a transferred repository, these commands will redirect to the new repository location or URL.

However, to avoid confusion, we strongly recommend updating any existing local clones to point to the new repository URL. You can do this by using git remote on the command line:

git remote set-url origin new_url

For more information, see Changing a remote’s URL.

Which repositories are being moved?

The following repositories are being transferred:

PowerShell/PowerShell-Docs

PowerShell/powerShell-Docs.cs-cz

PowerShell/powerShell-Docs.de-de

PowerShell/powerShell-Docs.es-es

PowerShell/powerShell-Docs.fr-fr

PowerShell Documentation Migration August 2nd

Hi, I’m Zach Alexander and I’m a PM on the PowerShell Team working on documentation.I wanted to let you know that there will be a brief downtime for online PowerShell documentation.

This downtime will occur on August 2nd and shouldn’t last more than a few hours. We will start around 4:30pm Pacific and estimate we will be back up by 7:30pm.

This downtime is needed so we can move our content off MSDN and onto Technical documentation, API, and code examples! Moving to docs.microsoft.com means better community tools, better navigation, and a better reading experience.

This migration will not break most existing links. We will have redirection set up as part of the migration so most links end up going to the correct location. If we missed a link, feel free to file an issue on UserVoice or GitHub. This migration will also not affect our PowerShell Documentation repo on GitHub. We will continue to take suggestions and contributions from that repo, which will be rendered into the documents you see on docs.microsoft.com.

We’re excited to be moving to docs.microsoft.com! We have had a great experience open-sourcing our documentation, and continuing that journey with even better tooling can only mean even better docs!

Fedora 7 repos

I have the Fedora 7 dvd on the way down. I was just wondering if anyone has any suggested 3rd party repos for all the non-GNU programs, features and codecs?

I'll also take other suggestions, if you have them.

Keep in mind, I'm no Linux pro, but I'm not a total noob either.

remove repo optimizer completely

Hi Joe,

Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am glad to assist you on this.

I appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down the issue and to provide you better assistance.

What exactly "Repo Optimizer" is? Is this an application?

How did you uninstall this?

Are you using any third party anti-virus on your system?

If yes, I suggest you to temporarily disable the anti-virus and then try the uninstall Repo Optimizer and check if this helps.

Disclaimer: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you shouldn't disable your antivirus software. If you
have to temporarily disable it to install other software, you should re-enable it as soon as you're done. If you're connected to the Internet or a network while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

Hope this helps.

Kindly get back to us with the above information if you still face the issue.

Thank You.
