Is there a way...

It seems that after I upload new files anywhere within the directory structure of the site that is visible to VS, the next time I perform a build VS takes extra time, apparently downloading the new files (though the time required seems much longer than a one-time download should take).

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
