Description

Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I've tried to search, and couldn't find an answer.

When I run the build script for FsCheck, it leaves behind a Paket.Restore.targets file. It didn't use to do that earlier, but I suppose it's a new feature of Paket.

Should this file be checked into source control, or should it be ignored (added to .gitignore)?
