[Feature Request] Allow force flag for az repos policy create

See original GitHub issue

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. If the branch policy already exists, we will need to use az repos policy update command. This means I need to first get the policy id. Getting the policy id for a repo is not intuitive especially because az repos policy list lists just repository id

Describe the solution you’d like Allow me to set the --force flag for az repos policy create command

@onlyutkarsh - Let me look into this. I did a quick check and the ID remains the same even after 10 minutes of change. I will loop in the team as well to try and repro this. Will keep you posted on progress.

Including scenario context: We have close to 50+ repos and new ones getting created each day. Apart from “required reviewer” and “build validation” policy types (which change per repo), I would like to keep following (4 below) policies same and in sync for all repos. I would like to run this using az devops cli as part of scheduled pipeline.

Require a merge strategy

This will ensure, even if policy is changed by someone manually, the pipeline will re-apply them in next run. Hope that makes sense.
