Pull request overview
This PR updates the VM image build automation to avoid compressing Oracle Cloud (OCI) VM images, eliminating an unnecessary decompression step downstream with negligible size savings.
Changes:
- Treat
oraclecloudVM images as--image_compression_formats=nonein the VM build loop so the uncompressed artifact is kept.
💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.
