GitInfo does not work when the project does not compile any source file

[fabiostrocco]

Assume no compilation is involved in a project, this is the case for example in .nuproj projets.
When the project references the GitInfo nuget package, the targets (GitInfo, GetVersion, etc.) are not executed. However, it would be nice to also access git information properties in .nuproj files that only contain metadata such as targets files and do not produce any assembly.

Git information retrieval currently only occurs only when compilation occurs, as
shown in the lines below extracted from GitInfo.targets

<CoreCompileDependsOn>
      GitInfo;
      GitVersion;
      GitThisAssembly;
      GitInfoReport;
      $(CoreCompileDependsOn)
</CoreBuildDependsOn>

The property above could be changed into something like CoreBuildDependsOn.

Or is there any specific reason for using CoreCompileDependsOn?
