Hi,

We run Azure Devops pipelines using Microsoft Hosted Agents.
This Classic Pipeline uses the 'Get Sources' task to get sources from SVN hosted elsewhere.

Windows-2019 and 2022 both had Subversion installed as tool (Subversion (SVN) 1.14.5). Windows-2025 no longer does.

As far as I can tell building sources from a subversion repository should still be possible.
FAQs only cover the scenario where the server cannot be reached, it doesn't mention the tool not being installed.
Since SVN is only supported in the classic pipelines (and not yaml), installing the tool manually before checking out the sources is not an option?

Can the tool be re-added to the image? Any suggestions on how to fix the pipeline?
