Commit files into azure git repo using azure devops

Question

how to commit files into azure git repo using build pipeline.

I am generating some files from my azure ci pipeline and I want to commit those files into the same repo which I used in my ci pipeline.

I have added the azure CLI task and added an inline command to commit code but it gives me the error and not working.

git add .
git commit -m "test commit"
git push -u origin Trunk

For classic Mode pipeline:

You could enable the Allow scripts to access the OAuth token option.

And grant the Repo Contribute permission for Project Collection Build Service Accounts.

Git command:

   git config --global user.email "email"
   git config --global user.name "Kevin Lu"

   git add .

   git commit -m "My commit message"

   git push origin master

For Yaml Pipeline:

You could set the persistCredentials: true in YAML sample.

And grant the Repo Contribute permission for Build Service .

Yaml Sample:

steps:
- checkout: self
  persistCredentials: true

- script: |
   git config --global user.email "email"
   git config --global user.name "Kevin Lu"
       
   git add .
   
   git commit -m "My commit message"
   
   git push origin master
   
  displayName: 'Command Line Script'
