Issue 3762 Give Option to Choose SQL PowerShell Module When Restoring From BacPac There are instances where sqlps does not work as expected when it is installed. This change adds a switch parameter, useSqlServerModule, to Restore-BcDatabaseFromArtifacts, New-NavContainer, and the BcContainerHelper config file. Issue 1303 from AL-Go repository - renew federated token when access token needs renewal (works only for GitHub at this time) Issue 3590 EarliestMatching select option added to Download-BcNuGetPackageToFolder Regression when from PR 3760 - Push-BcNuGetPackage doesn't work on PowerSHell 5 Issue 3772 Get-BcNuGetPackageId name length limit Two new parameter in Sort-AppFoldersByDependencies - selectSubordinates and SkippedApps. If specified, then only the appFolders specified in the first array plus the apps depending on these recursively will be sorted. The remaining folder not included in the sorted appfolders list will be returned in skippedApps.
