Additional context

While the preferred method to install the az cli is the official method with the dedicated interepretter and copy of the azure SDK this is not ok for folks that work with ephemeral containers due to the extremely large size of the Azure SDK. Having a duplicate copy of the azure SDK is a big problem that is tracked in other long open issues. We cannot use the official method and the strict import tree of the azure CLI is causing conflicts.

Yong Zhang (@yonzhan) I see 'PyGithub~=1.38' still pinned in 2.60.0.

This issue is still open and as mentioned by Stephane Odul (@sodul) becomes a blocker for using azure-cli in certain environments (eg. packaged images for K8s). Would it be possible to resolve this. Happy to help raise a PR if it helps
