Microsoft.Build.Tasks
This package contains implementations of commonly-used MSBuild tasks that ship with MSBuild itself.
You do not need to reference this package to use these tasks in a build--they are available in any MSBuild environment.
If you are writing a new task, you may wish to reference
Microsoft.Build.Utilities.Core
and derive from Microsoft.Build.Utilities.Task or
Microsoft.Build.Utilities.ToolTask.
