The following criteria must be met before this can be merged:

1. add a version property to the inserted component roslyn-tools#280 must be completed.
2. This repo must be updated to the latest version of the RepoToolset containing the changes in add a version property to the inserted component roslyn-tools#280.
3. Run a full-signed build with these changes and verify that the following files specify a info/buildVersion property (mentioned below):
   • [internal-drop-location]\VSSetup\Insertion\Microsoft.VisualStudio.Editors.vsman
   • [internal-drop-location]\VSSetup\Insertion\Microsoft.VisualStudio.NetCore.ProjectTemplates.vsman
   • [internal-drop-location]\VSSetup\Insertion\Microsoft.VisualStudio.NetCore.ProjectTemplates.1.x.vsman
   • [internal-drop-location]\VSSetup\Insertion\Microsoft.VisualStudio.ProjectSystem.Managed.vsman

What this does:

To help make our internal automation easier, we need to publish a version number with the insertion component. The net result of this is the artifacts\Release\VSSetup\Insertion\*.vsman files will be modified to this:

{
  // ...
  "info": {
    // ...
    "buildVersion": "2.8.0.6302101", // <-- added this line
    // ...
  }
  // ...
}
