Build Oracle Visual Builder Applications from source code. Artifacts produced will be extension.vx (extension to be deployed) and sources.zip (the source code).
This operation expects the source code to be in an unzipped format.
Oracle Visual Builder (OVB) applications on SaaS always use Git as the source of truth. Visual Builder Studio (VBS) includes a built-in Git repository and automatically manages branch checkout, commit, and merge during development and publish operations. Hence, this operation will always source code from a Git repository.
