Has anyone had success using Git storage with an Azure DevOps repo? Is this supported?

Hey <@U02B7C185D5>, we made changes to support this but it’s not fully complete yet I think. Check <https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/pull/4870#issuecomment-900002384|this> for usage. Azure DevOps is tricky cuz they have their own convention different from Github, Bitbucket, and Gitlab

But you might still get <https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/issues/4882|this> error

just put an empty string of something in the repo to bypass

got it figured out. however, the documentation really led me astray.

this bit:
`flow = Flow("my-flow")`
`flow.storage = Git(repo="my/repo", flow_path="/flows/flow.py", repo_host="<http://github.com|github.com>")`

had me add a leading forward slash to the flow path, which caused os.path.join to not work properly. not sure if that's a windows/*nix difference

and this one
`prefect register -f flow.py`
doesn't include the --project argument, or the -p argument, which was very confusing

these are both on <https://docs.prefect.io/api/latest/storage.html#git>

<@ULVA73B9P> open “Misleading Flow Path in Docs”

BTW - this comment on stackoverflow is what got me over the finish line, in case you want to add this to documentation at some point for Azure DevOps:

Thanks. Will add this to the Github issue
