There is a lot there but it’s pretty hard to maintain. Visual Studio has a tendency to sometimes upgrade references automatically. I have seen it now several times that a project has been set up with the correct references, then somebody else opens the project, saves, and now everything is changed. Makes me sometimes get nostalgic about make files. It took a while to build them up manually but then they were stable. With Visual Studio there is too much “intelligence” and wizardry going on behind the scenes.
