Hanging build when activing cloud build in Azure DevOps build pipeline

We encountered an issue when we enable Nerdbank 3.6.133 with cloud build number enabled. The build process get stuck on a project and not recovers. The build get cancelled after one hour (normal build time is around 30 seconds without the setting). When we disable the buildnumber enabled and set Variables the build runs normal.

{
  "$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AArnott/Nerdbank.GitVersioning/master/src/NerdBank.GitVersioning/version.schema.json",
  "version": "18.0",
  "versionHeightOffset": 0,
  "publicReleaseRefSpec": [
    "^refs/heads/master",
    "^refs/heads/releases/.*$"
  ],
  "cloudBuild": {
    "buildNumber": {
      "enabled": true
    },
    "setVersionVariables": true,
    "setAllVariables": true
  }
}

The log from the build shows that the task is started but not continued. After the build is cancelled the Async commands are visible.
We have around 40 different projects to be built with .net core 7.

We tried with gitversionbasedirectory but still encounter the issue. Sporadically the build succeed within of 30 seconds.

I haven't seen the behavior you describe myself, but I recommend you turn off that setting, and set your cloud build number using an explicit step as documented here.

I hope this helps.

We had the exact same problem. Setting

"setVersionVariables": false, "setAllVariables": false,

worked.
