Build events are removed

[markusgud]

Seems like build events are not moved to the new csproj files. Any post-build or pre-build events will be lost in the conversion.

Can you provide an example of such project file, even if it is stripped of any sensitive data? That would be of tremendous help.

Closing this one as cannot reproduce, I converted:
