Project Description
MSBuild Mercuria Tasks adds Mercurial management to MSBuild.
This project is developed in C#.
The Idea
All project starts from an idea.
In my case, I want to start a project on Codeplex and discover that Codeplex supports Mercurial (quite a good news) but that there is no MSBuild tasks for Mercurial and I like the idea that assembly version should be linked to source control (see
Scenario 1).
My idea was to create this first project as a test project for:
- Codeplex as this is my first project on the platform,
- MSBuild extension as this is my first development to extend MSBuild,
- Mercurial as I'm more common with Subversion,
- Wix as the project will be deliver as a Msi file and I usually use InstallShield.
This project will be useful for me ... but I hope it can be for you too !
