1.11.8 try step

Performs the given step, ignoring any failure and masking it with success.

This can be used when you want to perform some side-effect, but you don't really want the whole build to fail if it doesn't work.

When emitting logs somewhere for analyzing later, if the destination flakes out it may not really be critical, so we may want to just swallow the error:

plan:
- task: run-tests
  config: # ...
  on_success:
    try:
      put: test-logs
      params:
        from: run-tests/*.log
- task: do-something-else
  config: # ...
