### Deterministic

When using `MSBuild -t:pack -p:Deterministic=true`, multiple invocations of the the pack target will generate the exact same package.
The output of the pack command is not affected by the ambient state of the machine. Specifically zip entries will be timestamped as 1980-01-01. To achieve full determinism, the assemblies should be built with the respective compiler option [-deterministic](/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/compiler-options/deterministic-compiler-option).
It is recommended that you specify the deterministic property like following, so both the compiler and NuGet will respect it.

```xml
<PropertyGroup>
<Deterministic>true</Deterministic>
</PropertyGroup>
```

### Including content in a package

To include content, add extra metadata to the existing `<Content>` item. By default everything of type "Content" gets included in the package unless you override with entries like the following:
