Input alias: cwd. string. Default value: build.

The current working directory when CMake is run.
If you specify a relative path, then it is relative to your repo. For example, if you specify build, the result is the same as if you specified $(Build.SourcesDirectory)\build.
You can also specify a full path outside the repo, and you can use variables. For example: $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)\build
If the path you specify does not exist, CMake creates it.
Task control options

None.
Remarks
Use this task to build with the CMake cross-platform build system.
How do I enable CMake for Microsoft-hosted agents?
The Microsoft-hosted agents have CMake installed already, so you don't need to do anything. You do not need to add a demand for CMake in your azure-pipelines.yml file.
How do I enable CMake for my on-premises agent?
Deploy an agent.
On your agent machine, install CMake and make sure to add it to the user's path that the agent is running as.
In your web browser, go to Agent pools and add a capability named cmake. Set its value to yes.
