Stop storing information in Visual Studio Solutions
Many companies (mine included) don't store our projects and solutions within source control. There are many reasons for this, but in a nutshell, the VS formats don't play nicely when it comes to large, complex merges. Instead, we use things like Premake and CMake to generate our projects and solutions on developer machines. This is fundamentally incompatible with your VS integrations. Could there possibly be an option to store the information your tool needs in another format?

We don’t actually store any info other than the standard stored by Visual Studio when it plugs a version control system to the project.

Hi Rob,
Not sure I follow here, let me make sure I got the point:
1) You are using Visual Studio + the Plastic SCM Visual Studio plugin (correct?? You do use the plugin)
2) But you don't want to store projects and solutions under version control (but still have the plugin ready).
Let me understand if this is correct and I'll try to do my best to get it solved.
