Simple rebuild modifies project setting

Inside __vm folder are project configuration files, like:
Configuration.Debug.vmps.xml
Configuration.Release.vmps.xml

These files contains project setting like AdditionalPreprocessor="_DEBUG=1", so they needs to be under version control system (git, svn) in order to preserve this setting. But every time project is built these files are modified so version control system show modified files, but no project related setting were changed. 
This is not convenient, project setting and compilation tasks should be stored in separate files.

If you do not use the visual micro project properties to add additional configuration specific compiler or debugger settings then you do not need these files in source control.

We will try to change the way visual micro works in a future release preventing change of these files is no settings have changed. It's a useful post thanks.

Unfortunately I need additional project options, because without it macro _DEBUG is not set in debug mode, which is really unfortunate. 

Thanks for the effort anyway, your adding is really handy. Arduino studio is child's tool for person used to code for living Smiley
