I want to versioning my asp.net core app.

I followed this link: http://www.matthiaseinig.de/2013/05/20/auto-generate-fileversion-for-all-projects-in-a-solution-with-t4/ , but I want to remove project assembly info, but I didn't find it.

How to remove duplicated assembly info? I want to override asp core assemblies with another file.

BETTER SOLUTION

After a while I realize that the best solution is to use a T4 file, the version is incremented automatically after each build.

Right now properties could be defined in .csproj or using AssemblyInfo.cs, but only the one place could be used, otherwise "Duplicate" errors are generated.

If you want to use AssemblyInfo.cs, add the following into .csproj to avoid duplication errors:

<PropertyGroup>
  <GenerateAssemblyInfo>false</GenerateAssemblyInfo>
</PropertyGroup>

If you are interesting how does it work, look into GenerateAssemblyInfo task.

Otherwise, remove AssemblyInfo.cs and add the following property into your .csproj file:

<PropertyGroup>
  <AssemblyVersion>1.2.3.4</AssemblyVersion>
</PropertyGroup>
