After further review, this really isn't necessary. Trying to do this in a reference template would be hard to maintain. The goal of this project is to "kick start" ones understanding and empower them to solve their own problems, not try to solve every possible scenario. We can accomplish dev/test/prod explanation with documentation. The "MSCRM Pack Solution" VSTS task enables you to set your package type to both managed and unmanaged. You can then use VSTS Environments to deploy the unmanaged solution to one or many dev orgs and the managed to test/staging/prod. Showing Patching is already being handled by #34
