title: Can TFS 2012 set build numbers during a managed Build
body: <p>I know that the AssemblyInfo class can be set to auto increment the build number as such:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.*")]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But this works only for building the app myself (i.e. from the IDE).  I use TFS to build my solution (multiple projects).  The assemblies in the build drop location are all still set to version 1.0.0.0.
  What is the path of least resistance for getting the build or revision number into the AssemblyVersion?<br>
  Ideally, TFS already has a $(BuildID), an auto-incrementing integer, that I use as my Build Number Format for defining my drop location...can't that just become the version build number in the AssemblyVersion and AssemblyFileVersion?</p>
