Shell Exec extension

This is the VSTS task which enables us to execute shell commands on the task.

Shell Exec task

Usage

Just list your command on the "Code" text area. I tested with Linux Hoste Build (Preview). This task simply creates ./.tempexecution.sh by the Code then execute it.

Very simple solution.

Motivation

I don't want to add a file to execute something. The pipeline is for someone's GitHub account, so I don't want to add anything. I could folk it and add shell file, but I don't like the idea.

Using this command, you don't need to add a file for executing some commands. Also, it is very useful to debug/test something. Although this is a simple task, it is helpful. That is why I make this publish.
