Bump azdev.__init__.__VERSION__ to 0.2.8.❗ Root Cause
pip 25.3 removed support for the legacy setup.py develop editable method in setuptools installs. Editable installs now require PEP 517/660 and setuptools >= 64.
Reference: #11457
This change breaks tools like azdev setup that rely on the old mechanism, causing errors such as:
/mnt/vss/_work/1/s/env/bin/python: No module named azure.cli.__main__; 'azure.cli' is a package and cannot be directly executed✅ Temporary Fix


Pin pip to 25.2 (or lower) to restore legacy editable behavior:
python -m pip install --upgrade pip==25.2📝Long-Term Solution
Migrate to PEP 660 editable installs:
