PublishContainer doesn't traverse the project tree (Microsoft.Build.Traversal)

[oats4goats]

Hey!

I use a .proj file in the root (generated by dotnet-affected tooling) to build and publish the affected projects in my tree.

I'm now exploring the PublishContainer target for my CI pipeline. And it seems to be checking isPublishable and EnableSdkContainerSupport props in the said .proj file (in the root) which are false by default and then skips publishing the containers altogether without traversing the tree.

Publishing the projects inside the tree works just fine. Is it an intended behavior?

Thanks for looking into this!

You'd need to ask the traversal SDK folks why the target isn't forwarded along to the child projects.

Got it! Thanks. Will report back.

Great! Interested in hearing what they think - in general if an action works for a solution we should be able to support it for a traversal project as well.
