tl;dr: How to modify the .csproj file during publishing with ClickOnce while executing pre-build events?
Long: I'm using TFS hosted by Microsoft for version control of my solution.
When publishing with ClickOnce, I get the latest revision number + 1 without problems. I also can successfully write the new version number into the .csproj file outside my build-process.
The problem is, that the .csproj file doesn't get updated during the build process - it might be in a write-lock. I get a notification inside Notepad++ about the modification of the file, but the file still contains the old version and VS didn't notice any changes.
The only solution by now I found to resolve this issue: Move the revision update into the post-build events and add 2 instead of one to the actual revision number. Unfortunately this would cause that revision number would be out of date whenever other developers check-in code.

Ok, strike that... :(.
After some more diffing, you'll need to override the GenerateApplicationManifest target to get this to work. That target doesn't use a *DependsUpon propertygroup, so it's harder to overwrite. The whole flow is defined in the Microsoft.Common.Targets file which you can find in the %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework{cpu}\{version} folder.
