Add a new MSBuild target DeleteEmptyFilesMarkerIfTargetMissing that runs before CopyEmptyFilesIncremental and deletes the intermediate marker (EmptyFiles.copied) when the EmptyFiles directory is missing from the target output. This forces the copy to re-run if the output was cleaned without cleaning the intermediate output. Update documentation to clarify that the marker lives in the intermediate output, document the new deletion behavior and the additional re-copy condition, and add a newline at EOF in EmptyFiles.targets.
Uses Windows Restart Manager API to identify which processes hold file locks when TempDirectory.Dispose() fails. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
