@jeffhostetler: Perhaps the old line should stay here, and we just add the core.fsmonitor line, too. Keeping the old config won't hurt, and might help for users still on an older version of Git.

Yeah, leave both. It won't hurt anything. I haven't checked recently to see how many users are still using very old versions of Git, but let's assume we have some...

## Building VFS for Git

If you'd like to build your own VFS for Git Windows installer:
* Install Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition or higher (https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/).
* Install Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition or higher (https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/).
* Include the following workloads:
* .NET desktop development
* Desktop development with C++
* .NET Core cross-platform development
* Include the following additional components:
* .NET Core runtime
* Windows 10 SDK (10.0.10240.0)
* MSVC v141 VS 2017 C++ build tools. It is under the "Desktop Development with C++" heading.
* Install the Windows 10 SDK (10.0.16299.91) via the archived SDK page: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/sdk-archive
* Install the .NET Core 2.1 SDK (https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/dotnet-core/2.1)
* Install [`nuget.exe`](https://www.nuget.org/downloads)
* Create a folder to clone into, e.g. `C:\Repos\VFSForGit`
* Clone this repo into the `src` subfolder, e.g. `C:\Repos\VFSForGit\src`
* Run `\src\Scripts\BuildGVFSForWindows.bat`
* Run `\src\Scripts\Build.bat`
* You can also build in Visual Studio by opening `src\GVFS.sln` (do not upgrade any projects) and building. However, the very first
build will fail, and the second and subsequent builds will succeed. This is because the build requires a prebuild code generation step.
For details, see the build script in the previous step.

You can also use Visual Studio 2019. There are a couple of options for getting all the dependencies.
* You can install Visual Studio 2017 side by side with Visual Studio 2019, and make sure that you have all the dependencies from Visual Studio 2017 installed
* Alternatively, if you only want to have Visual Studio 2019 installed, install the following extra dependencies:
* MSVC v141 VS 2017 C++ build tools via the optional components in the Visual Studio 2019 installer. It is under the "Desktop Development with C++" heading.
* Windows 10 SDK (10.0.10240.0) via the archived SDK page: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/sdk-archive
Visual Studio 2019 will [automatically prompt you to install these dependencies](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/setup/configure-visual-studio-across-your-organization-with-vsconfig/) when you open the solution. The .vsconfig file that is present in the root of the repository specifies all required components _except_ the Windows 10 SDK (10.0.16299.91) as this component is no longer shipped with VS2019 - **you'll still need to install that separately**.

The installer can now be found at `C:\Repos\VFSForGit\BuildOutput\GVFS.Installer.Windows\bin\x64\[Debug|Release]\SetupGVFS.<version>.exe`.

### Running Tests

Unit tests can be run after any build using the `scripts\RunUnitTests.bat` script.

Functional tests are much more involved and require you to install your version of VFS for Git and the `microsoft/git` fork of Git. When those are installed, you can then run `scripts\RunFunctionalTests.bat`.
