   Explanation

   Project1:Git in Azure Repos - Project2: Github Enterprise - GitHub Enterprise is the on-premises version of GitHub.com. GitHub Enterprise includes the same great set of features as GitHub.com but packaged for running on your organization's local network. All repository data is stored on machines that you control, and access is integrated with your organization's authentication system (LDAP, SAML, or CAS). Project3: Bitbucket cloud - One downside, however, is that Bitubucket does not include support for SVN but this can be easily amended migrating the SVN repos to Git with tools such as SVN Mirror for Bitbucket . Note: SVN is a centralized version control system. Incorrect Answers: Bitbucket: Bitbucket comes as a distributed version control system based on Git. Note: A source control system, also called a version control system, allows developers to collaborate on code and track changes. Source control is an essential tool for multi-developer projects. Our systems support two types of source control: Git (distributed) and Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC). TFVC is a centralized, client-server system. In both Git and TFVC, you can check in files and organize files in folders, branches, and repositories.

   Answer: See figure below

   Explanation

   Step 1: Assign the node configuration. You create a simple DSC configuration that ensures either the presence or absence of the Web-Server Windows Feature (IIS), depending on how you assign nodes. Step 2: Upload a configuration to Azure Automation State Configuration. You import the configuration into the Automation account. Step 3: Compiling a configuration into a node configuration Compiling a configuration in Azure Automation Before you can apply a desired state to a node, a DSC configuration defining that state must be compiled into one or more node configurations (MOF document), and placed on the Automation DSC Pull Server. Step 4: Onboard the virtual machines to Azure State Configuration Onboarding an Azure VM for management with Azure Automation State Configuration Step 5: Check the compliance status of the node. Viewing reports for managed nodes. Each time Azure Automation State Configuration performs a consistency check on a managed node, the node sends a status report back to the pull server. You can view these reports on the page for that node. On the blade for an individual report, you can see the following status information for the corresponding consistency check: The report status ג€" whether the node is "Compliant", the configuration "Failed", or the node is "Not Compliant" (when the node is in ApplyandMonitor mode and the machine is not in the desired state).

5. Question 375 · 540 in bank

   You are developing an application. The application source has multiple branches. You make several changes to a branch used for experimentation. You need to update the main branch to capture the changes made to the experimentation branch and override the history of the Git repository. Which Git option should you use?

   • ARebase
   • BFetch
   • CMerge
   • DPush

   Show answer

   Answer: A

   Explanation

   Shouldn't it be a rebase since we want to "override the history of the Git repository"? A merge will not override the history, merely add the new changes,

6. Question 376 · 540 in bank

   Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution. After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen. You use Azure Pipelines to build and test a React.js application. You have a pipeline that has a single job. You discover that installing JavaScript packages from npm takes approximately five minutes each time you run the pipeline. You need to recommend a solution to reduce the pipeline execution time. Solution: You recommend defining a container job that uses a custom container that has the JavaScript packages preinstalled. Does this meet the goal?

   • AYes
   • BNo

   Show answer

   Answer: B

   Explanation

   https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/release/caching?view=azure-devops "Pipeline caching can help reduce build time by allowing the outputs or downloaded dependencies from one run to be reused in later runs, thereby reducing or avoiding the cost to recreate or redownload the same files again. Caching is especially useful in scenarios where the same dependencies are downloaded over and over at the start of each run. This is often a time consuming process involving hundreds or thousands of network calls. Caching can be effective at improving build time provided the time to restore and save the cache is less than the time to produce the output again from scratch. Because of this, caching may not be effective in all scenarios and may actually have a negative impact on build time." Answer is No
