"We merged an early C# 15 preview feature into .NET 11 preview 3: unions.
Adds union declarations (`union Pet(Cat, Dog, Bird) { ... }`) and union types (attributed with `[Union]`).
They can be treated by pattern matching/switch expressions as a closed set for exhaustiveness. " -Julien Couvreur

We just shipped v2 Core Framework 2.5.0, Analyzers 1.2.0, and Visual Studio adapter 2.5.0.

Okay, this is absolutely a Hail Mary.
Anybody out there have experience in dealing with #Steam #Gitlab #Godot and [#CSharp #dotnet #mono] who'd have a bit of time to help me debug a build pipeline issue? Apparently the pipeline broke silently a few days ago and has been making builds that compile without error but don't actually run, and I've been trying to troubleshoot for about twelve hours with only minor progress.
