The Common.targets file is has a strange encoding #1449

Open AndrewMore1 opened 3 years ago

AndrewMore1 commented 3 years ago

Description By default the Common.targets file located in the build directory appears to be encoded at UTF-16 for no apparent reason. This is causing minor problems with tooling in our source control repository.

Version 1.0.864,35 and several previous versions

Repro Steps Open the file in Notepad++ or other text editors, note the encoding. (For Notepad just drop down the "Encoding" menu

Additional context I'm able to work around this problem by converting the file to UTF-8, which appears to have no side effects. However I have to do this conversion for each new release, and often I forget about the problem between releases.
