Prevent regenerating unmodified controllers

[oskrabanek]

As a developer on a rather large project kept on TFS I want the T4MVC to remember which controllers have not been changed so the T4MVC doesn't regenerate the generated classes.

The main problem is with integration with TFS repository. As we wanted to integrate T4MVC into our project it took ages to regenerate as each file T4MVC wants to regenerate has to checked out by TFS causing the regeneration last up to 10 minutes and VS unresponding.

Some sort of comparing the controller signature of the controller as well as the static resources to the generated ones before modifying it would be nice solution to this issue.

I thought the latest TFS no longer required explicit checkout. And you know you really should be using git :)

That being said, I thought that was already supposed to be handled. Check out this code. You may want to debug it to see why it's not working.

Well unfortunately we don't have the latest TFS yet and I would prefer GIT as well, but this decision wasn't mine.

Anyway thanks for the hint, I'll check that on our solution, if this condition is working correctly.
