PR Summary

The PR to add ProgressAction common parameter caused this regression due to an internal helper to determine if the proxy is for a cmdlet. It expected CommonParameters to never change so if they differ, then the parameter is treated as custom so it doesn't work as expected. This works remoting from latest PS7 to latest PS7 since the common parameters match. However, latest to older PS7 or WinPS5.1 (like via WinCompat layer) fails as the new ProgressAction isn't found on the target.

Fix is to exclude ProgressAction from this check to enable it to work for the other common parameters.

  1. The calling to Remove here removes ProgressAction from the static hash set s_commonParameters. It will likely cause problems with other places that depends on s_commonParameters.
  2. We should ignore ProgressAction only if the server side is a down-level version that doesn't support this common parameter. You may be able to use the same check code from here:

    PowerShell/src/Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.Utility/commands/utility/ImplicitRemotingCommands.cs

    Lines 1576 to 1581 in 963bf1e

    // For remote PS version 5.1 and greater, we need to include the new -PowerShellVersion parameter
    if ((Session.Runspace is RemoteRunspace remoteRunspace) && (remoteRunspace.ServerVersion != null) &&
    (remoteRunspace.ServerVersion >= new Version(5, 1)))
    {
    powerShell.AddParameter("PowerShellVersion", PSVersionInfo.PSVersion);
    }

This PR has 15 quantified lines of changes. In general, a change size of upto 200 lines is ideal for the best PR experience!


Quantification details

Label      : Extra Small
Size       : +13 -2
Percentile : 6%

Total files changed: 2

Change summary by file extension:
.cs : +7 -2
.ps1 : +6 -0

Change counts above are quantified counts, based on the PullRequestQuantifier customizations.

Why proper sizing of changes matters

Optimal pull request sizes drive a better predictable PR flow as they strike a
balance between between PR complexity and PR review overhead. PRs within the
optimal size (typical small, or medium sized PRs) mean:

  • Fast and predictable releases to production:
    • Optimal size changes are more likely to be reviewed faster with fewer
      iterations.
    • Similarity in low PR complexity drives similar review times.
  • Review quality is likely higher as complexity is lower:
    • Bugs are more likely to be detected.
    • Code inconsistencies are more likely to be detected.
  • Knowledge sharing is improved within the participants:
    • Small portions can be assimilated better.
  • Better engineering practices are exercised:
    • Solving big problems by dividing them in well contained, smaller problems.
    • Exercising separation of concerns within the code changes.

What can I do to optimize my changes

  • Use the PullRequestQuantifier to quantify your PR accurately
    • Create a context profile for your repo using the context generator
    • Exclude files that are not necessary to be reviewed or do not increase the review complexity. Example: Autogenerated code, docs, project IDE setting files, binaries, etc. Check out the Excluded section from your prquantifier.yaml context profile.
    • Understand your typical change complexity, drive towards the desired complexity by adjusting the label mapping in your prquantifier.yaml context profile.
    • Only use the labels that matter to you, see context specification to customize your prquantifier.yaml context profile.
  • Change your engineering behaviors
    • For PRs that fall outside of the desired spectrum, review the details and check if:
      • Your PR could be split in smaller, self-contained PRs instead
      • Your PR only solves one particular issue. (For example, don't refactor and code new features in the same PR).

How to interpret the change counts in git diff output

  • One line was added: +1 -0
  • One line was deleted: +0 -1
  • One line was modified: +1 -1 (git diff doesn't know about modified, it will
    interpret that line like one addition plus one deletion)
  • Change percentiles: Change characteristics (addition, deletion, modification)
    of this PR in relation to all other PRs within the repository.
