dotnet-mergenupkg

Merge two nuget package

Useful to add .NET Core dependencies (assemblies, nuspec deps, tools) built with .NET Core Sdk inside an existing .nupkg

dotnet mergenupkg --source a.nupkg --other b.nupkg --framework netstandard2.0

The above command will modify the package a.nupkg adding the package dependencies and files (assemblies, xmldoc) for target framework netstandard2.0 from package b.nupkg

With --tools merge the dotnet tools instead of lib, to bundle a .net core framework dependent app, who can be useful if a package need to run a tool from a known location (like in a .Sdk package)
