PublishBuildArtifacts appears to publish sub-directories

@weshaggard commented on Feb 15, 2019, 4:59 PM UTC:

Doc says Subdirectories of the specified path will not be published. Wildcards in the path are not supported. but from my testing that appears to be incorrect it definitely appears to be publishing all files and sub-directories under the path that is given to it. So either the documentation is incorrect or the product has a bug.

Note that removing subfolders from task’s scope will cause regressions for everyone who already uses the task and relies on its existing behavior. It will be safer to just remove the misleading line from the Doc.
