Description

Hi

It would be nice to support the config transform files like for example Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc package does to bootstrap web.config for MVC projects. Those files (.install.xdt and .uninstall.xdt) should also never be added as content

Thanks,
Tom

Transform files (ref https://docs.nuget.org/create/configuration-file-and-source-code-transformations ):

  • xml
  • .pp

Research direction

No implementation files or tests are named. Start by locating Paket's handling of NuGet package content files, then compare it with the linked NuGet transformation guidance for .install.xdt, .uninstall.xdt, and .pp files. Done means supporting the requested XML and .pp transforms while excluding the install and uninstall files from content.
