Release Notes
- When calling
Get-NuGetPackagethe folder where items are expanded is now called__bininstead ofbin. This is a breaking change and scripts will need to be updated. https://github.com/ligershark/nuget-powershell/issues/5 - Added a module manifest to enable versioning the PowerShell module. https://github.com/ligershark/nuget-powershell/issues/4
