<include>

Includes an external build file.

This task is used to break your build file into smaller chunks. You can load a partial build file and have it included into the build file.

Note: Any global (project level) tasks in the included build file are executed when this task is executed. Tasks in target elements are only executed if that target is executed.

Note: The project element attributes are ignored.

Note: This task can only be in the global (project level) section of the build file.

Note: This task can only include files from the file system.
