Pull request overview
Backports the upstream fix to ensure OneBranch Windows job template expansion succeeds for the early-access .NET job path and the non-early-access (fallback) Windows jobs on release/v7.4.20 by defining the required ob_outputDirectory and using it as the early-access download destination.
Changes:
- Define
ob_outputDirectoryfor the non-early-access Windows “skip” jobs in both release and packages stage templates. - Define
ob_outputDirectoryindownloadDotnetEarlyAccess.ymland use it asdestinationPathfor early-access downloads.

Backport of #27843 to release/v7.4.20

Impact
REQUIRED: Choose either Tooling Impact or Customer Impact (or both). At least one checkbox must be selected.
Tooling Impact
Fixes OneBranch pipeline expansion for PowerShell 7.4 package and release jobs by defining the required ob_outputDirectory variable for the shared early-access .NET job and the non-early Windows fallback jobs, and by using that output directory as the early-access download destination.
Customer Impact
Regression
REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.
Regression introduced by PR #27795, which added the affected early-access and fallback Windows jobs without the ob_outputDirectory variable required by the OneBranch Windows job template.
Testing
Verified prerequisite backport PR #27910 is merged at the tip of upstream/release/v7.4.20, then cherry-picked the authoritative #27843 merge commit. Parsed all three changed YAML files successfully with PyYAML, confirmed the changed-file set exactly matches the original PR, ran git diff --check with no whitespace errors, scanned all changed files with no conflict markers found, and confirmed a clean worktree.
Risk
REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.
High risk because the change affects OneBranch build, package, and release pipeline job expansion on the servicing branch. Risk is reduced by the narrow three-file change, direct clean cherry-pick after its prerequisite, exact changed-file validation, successful YAML parsing, and clean whitespace and conflict-marker checks.
