how to limit nuget packages and versions to specific ones

Question: How can I ensure that all projects only use a specific set of nuget packages and versions? I'm using VS2017.

The way that I would handle this is to add a (directory.build.targets)[https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/msbuild/customize-your-build#directorybuildprops-and-directorybuildtargets] to help in this scenario.

The idea is that you will add an msbuild .targets file in the source root named directory.build.targets. In that file you can inject a target to be run before the build starts. For example,

MSBuild Feedback

Not in any order, I may sort them later.

Today creating and maintaining MSBuild scripts is challenging. Some of the challenges for the user include.
