When 'Remove-Item' is used to remove a symbolic link in Windows, only the link itself is removed. The '-Force' switch is no longer required.
If the directory pointed to by the link has child items, the cmdlet no longer prompts the user to remove the child items---those child items are not removed. The '-Recurse' switch, if given, is ignored.
This brings 'Remove-Item' more in line with the behavior of the 'rm' command on Unix.
Rather than relying on case-insensitive string compares of source and destination paths, use operating system calls to determine whether two paths refer to the same file. This solves not only the case-insensitivity issue but also allows the cmdlet to operate properly if the destination is a hard or symbolic link to the source.
The Windows side is implemented in C#. The Unix side is implemented partially in native code.
This change moves powershell to .NET Core 2.0. Major changes are:
1. PowerShell assemblies are now targeting `netcoreapp2.0`. We are using `microsoft.netcore.app-2.0.0-preview1-001913-00`, which is from dotnet-core build 4/4/17. We cannot target `netstandard2.0` because the packages `System.Reflection.Emit` and `System.Reflection.Emit.Lightweight`, which are needed for powershell class, cannot be referenced when targeting `netstandard2.0`.
2. Refactor code to remove most CLR stub types and extension types.
3. Update build scripts to enable CI builds. The `-cache` section is specified to depend on `appveyor.yml`, so the cache will be invalidated if `appveyor.yml` is changed.
4. Ship `netcoreapp` reference assemblies with powershell to fix the issues in `Add-Type` (#2764). By default `Add-Type` will reference all those reference assemblies when compiling C# code. If `-ReferenceAssembly` is specified, then we search reference assemblies first, then the framework runtime assemblies, and lastly the loaded assemblies (possibly a third-party one that was already loaded).
5. `dotnet publish` generates executable on Unix platforms, but doesn't set "x" permission and thus it cannot execute. Currently, the "x" permission is set in the build script, `dotnet/cli` issue [#6286](https://github.com/dotnet/cli/issues/6286) is tracking this.
6. Replace the use of some APIs with the ones that take `SecureString`.
7. osx.10.12 is required to update to `netcoreapp2.0` because `dotnet-cli` 2.0.0-preview only works on osx.10.12.
8. Add dependency to `System.ValueTuple` to work around a ambiguous type identity issue in coreclr. The issue is tracked by `dotnet/corefx` [#17797](https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/issues/17797). When moving to newer version of `netcoreapp2.0`, we need to verify if this dependency is still needed.
Now `New-Item` can create a file symlink to a file target or to a non-existent target. It can also create a directory symlink to a directory target on Windows.
- Removed the -TimeoutSec option and modified the expected Error to be consistent across platforms.
- Changed the port of the phony proxy to 9 which is reserved for the Discard Protocol. So even if the system is listening, it's supposed to discard that TCP request (UDP may use it for Wake-on-Lan, but doesn't affect this).

At this point, user account is created even if user attributes assignment
(like setting password) fails. The cmdlet throws a
non-terminating error but ends up creating the user. This behavior is
confusing. As per the changes, the localuser account will be rolled back
in case of failure in user attributes assignment.

* Updated CoreCLR implementation to use NewtonSoft Indented Formatting
I did not change the FullCLR behavior, I was not sure if you meant to
revert my changes or to leave it as is in the current pull request.
* Added tests that validate pretty Json output.
Not sure if there is a better thought on how to implement these. The
first two fail against current master, but succeed once this PR is
applied. Third test is successful prior and post this PR.
* Moved tests and removed extraneous file.
Moved pretty/compressed json tests from standalone file into the
existing ConvertTo-Json test file.
* Updated tests for cross-platform support
* Add ShouldProcess to New-FileCatalog and Test-FileCatalog
Close#3068
Add support `-WhatIf` and `-Confirm` to `New-FileCatalog` and add a
test.
`Test-FileCatalog` has a common code base with `New-FileCatalog` so it
automatically get the same. I believe that adding a separate test in
this case doesn't make sense.
* Fiz after code review
Remove _ShouldProcess
Add var in test
* Fix GetType() bad pattern and related issues in tests
$var.GetType() can raise an exception in tests so we should check $var
before make the call. A large part of the tests does not make this
check.
I start with searching ".GetType()" but discovered many related issues
in tests (reduntant and unneeded tests, "throw" bad pattens, bugs,
formattings (sorry!) and so on) - I had to fix them too.
* Fix after code review
* Second wave of migration GetType() -> BeOfType
Removed 'GetType().Name' patterns.
* Improve console cmdlets tests
Main improvements refer to tests of the Write-Host cmdlet.
Original tests:
1. Slow because run external processes
2. Don't test colors and -NoNewLine in fact.
1. The original tests is preserved (deleted one as redundant) but marked
by 'Slow' tag. They is preserved because they actually check the output
on the work, not a test console.
2. Add negative color tests. (Code cover grow!)
3. Add tests based on TestHostCS. This test host has been refined so we
can see colors and a new line in output.
4. Add minor fixes for test modules loads.
Also I add support for Information stream. I originally planned to use
it but not actually used. However, I have left this as a useful addition
for future tests.
I wonder that a Write-Host console output is duplicated in Information
Stream - Is it by design? I left a debug print on this matter in the
test code.
* Fix after code review
* Corrections after code review
Suppress import-module warnings
Rename Describes

Add Stream.Information tests with TestHostCS
* Add checks for Streams.Information and add comments
* Fixing Invoke-WebRequest InFile parameter
* Adding aliases for Invoke-RestMethod and Invoke-WebRequest
* Adding test cases for Web cmdlets -InFile parameter
* Adding tests for Invoke-WebRequest (iwr) and Invoke-RestMethod (irm) using the cmdlet aliases.
* Remove the extra leading space
* Added parameter alias to the Out-File cmdlet, allowing -FilePath to be used as -Path.
Relevant issue: https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/2923
* Test to confirm the alias I added to the Out-File cmdlet's -FilePath parameter works.
* Changed test for parameter alias as per feedback.
* Updating based on feedback.
Made formatting changes:
Added space between brackets and start of cmdlet.
Moved end bracket to before the pipe and Should Not Throw statement.
Removed -InputObject parameter for the test, as it was not needed.
* Added BeforeAll to the first part of the file. Replaced tabs with spaces.
#2945
* Fixing indentation within the test file
