This might sound like a naive question. Is there a way i can ignore deploying some services or files in visual studio? We currently publish the mvc project to a shared folder using file system method which takes like 30min to publish the stuff. the soap services are the biggest chunck of data, These services are same every time and nothing changes. I just want to ignore redeploying the same stuff again and again, Instead when i hit publish to the folder the vs will copy and replace the files ignoring the servies in the target folder? Note: I do select the delete existing files prior to publish in the settings
