<!--
Local workspace switch: use the DotNetBoost libraries' source instead of the nuget.org packages.

It turns on only when ../DotNetBoost.Workspace.slnx exists, i.e. on a machine where this repo
sits next to the library repos (dotnetboost-settings, -media, -multilingual, -auditing). CI
checks out this repo alone, so there is no such file and every build there uses the
published packages pinned in Directory.Packages.props.

When on, each DotNetBoost.* PackageReference whose project exists in a sibling repo's src/
folder becomes a ProjectReference to it; any package without a local project stays a
PackageReference. Works the same from the IDE, dotnet build, dotnet run and dotnet test.

Build against nuget.org while the workspace exists: dotnet build -p:UseLocalDotNetBoost=false
Turn it off for good: delete ../DotNetBoost.Workspace.slnx.
