Who is responsible for the portable version that chocolatey downloads?, this main/master thing broke all our builds now, and chcolatey tells me that 5.6.5 is latest portable?

I think best approach is to have a version specified instead of always installing the latest version. That's a common practice. Then you test the latest version and then gradually update to latest released.

I will check why the chocolatey version was not published but I recommend to pin the version of any tool so that you have always stable builds. It's a bit frustrating to see this kind of comments

pushed https://chocolatey.org/packages/GitVersion.Portable/5.6.6, waiting for moderation to complete

Regarding this:

That's a common practice.
Yes, I would agree, at the same time, since we use TeamCity, we used this many years ago: https://gitversion.readthedocs.io/en/latest/input/docs/build-server-support/build-server/teamcity/
Which pointed us to this one: https://github.com/JetBrains/meta-runner-power-pack/tree/master/gitversion

I think the basic usage would be better, than the meta runner, since the metarunner have the chocolatey integration (only reason we also installed chocolatey), not sure why we didn't use commandline runner, I think we did at some point though.

We need to update that.
https://gitversion.readthedocs.io is the old resource, this is the new one https://gitversion.net/docs/build-server-support/build-server/teamcity but still we need to update
