Your `src/windows-build` submodule is probably empty. See "Why is my submodule
empty?" above. This submodule contains a local NuGet feed with packages
necessary for the build. The quick fix is `git submodule update --init`.
Why did my Travis CI build fail with `GITHUB_TOKEN variable is undefined, please provide token`?
================================================================================================
Travis CI uses an encrypted environment variable to authorize with GitHub and
download PowerShell (which it then uses to build and test through the
`build.psm1` module). However, the following caveat applies:
> Encrypted variables are not added to untrusted builds such as pull requests
> coming from another repository.
Thus a pull request made from a fork of the PowerShell repository will not pass
the Travis CI as it will be unable to build. Please instead push your branch to
the upstream PowerShell repository on GitHub (that is,
https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell), and issue a new Pull Request. If you
cannot do this, please get in contact with us to obtain the necessary
permissions.
