Description
1. Create new WPF application in Visual Studio 2019 (.NET Core is what I chose)
1. Create a git repo around the solution.
1. In the solution directory, drop a Directory.Build.props file with this content to redirect the `obj` directory to a solution level (for a read only source tree):
```xml
$(MSBuildThisDirectory)\obj\$(MSBuildProjectName)\
```
The build succeeds. Now add these elements to the `Directory.Build.props` file:
```xml
true
```
Then build again.
The build will fail:
```
1>------ Rebuild All started: Project: WpfApp3, Configuration: Debug Any CPU ------
1>D:\obj\WpfApp3\Debug\netcoreapp3.0\MainWindow.g.cs(58,21,58,38): error CS1504: Source file 'MainWindow.xaml' could not be opened -- Could not find file.
1>D:\obj\WpfApp3\Debug\netcoreapp3.0\App.g.cs(51,21,51,31): error CS1504: Source file 'App.xaml' could not be opened -- Could not find file.
1>Done building project "WpfApp3.csproj" -- FAILED.
