I'm migrating Work items from a single project from TFS2017 to DevOps using the azure-devops-migration-tools tool, and it's throwing a runtime exception when migrating a specific work item with the following message:
Unrecognized Resource link: Link Name: Fixed in
When I look at the source work item in TFS, I don't even see a link of that type:
Is there something I can do to skip those bad link types, or is this a bug in the migration software that needs fixed?
Here's the full stack trace:
