I would like the action(s) that uses VS to compile solutions, to prevent the Recent Projects list in VS from being populated with the compiled projects. If implemented, should probably appear as an option.
When I use an action to compile a solution, that solution will be put on top of the Recent Projects in the Start Page of Visual Studio, and also in File/Recent Projects and Solutions.
This is very annoying because of the following:
My build script will export the latest revision of the source from the version control system, and put it in a folder like e.g.
C:\BuildArea\DemoProject\rev5601
and then compile it at that location.
When I get to work at morning, and open Visual Studio, this is what my Recent Projects typically look like:
C:\BuildArea\DemoProject\rev5613\DemoProject.sln
C:\BuildArea\DemoProject\rev5609\DemoProject.sln
C:\BuildArea\DemoProject\rev5607\DemoProject.sln
C:\BuildArea\DemoProject\rev5605\DemoProject.sln
C:\WorkArea\DemoProject\DemoProject.sln
I have a bunch of useless entries to my exported revisions, and if I am lucky my actual solution(s) at the bottom.
