Pull request overview
This PR fixes MSBuild extensibility for GetCopyToOutputDirectoryItemsDependsOn by preserving any pre-existing (user- or import-provided) value instead of overwriting it in Microsoft.Common.CurrentVersion.targets, aligning it with the established “append-to-DependsOn property” pattern used elsewhere in the file.
Changes:
- Prepend
$(GetCopyToOutputDirectoryItemsDependsOn);to the default dependency list so customizations aren’t lost. - Enables users to insert custom targets at a specific stage of
GetCopyToOutputDirectoryItemsexecution (per #13471).
