Nuget restoring package

Hi all!

CMS 12

Is it just me having zip packages restored all times I build?

Ive learned this is because how the nuget in .net 5 works, there is no after install event anymore. so instead it is runing "restore" every time you build, and the way to copy over files, is to have a build event in the nuget pack that moves the zip to modules.

In my solution it is mainly the tinymce package Modified on every build ...

Hi, with a future update of CMS UI, most (all?) of these modules will only be updated when they're missing or has been updated.

The reason it's not working as nice as it could, is because the modules don't leverage incremental builds https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/msbuild/incremental-builds?view=vs-2022&viewFallbackFrom=vs-2019 in their MSBuild target.

Luc, I don't think you need to store the zip files in your source control system. Those are quite big files that do not need to be versioned by you. They are part of CMS nuget packages and will be automatically restored. You can easily gitignore the whole modules/_protected folder and remove those files from repository.
