File referenced by ProjectItem is not created when new Project created
Trying to create my first Project Template for a simple VS2015 C# project. But when I try to create a Project with it, one of the files - post_build.bat - is missing.
The content of the project template ZIP file is:
AssemblyInfo.cs
Class1.cs
ImsProject.ico
ImsProject.vstemplate
post_build.bat
ProjectTemplate.csproj
The ImsProject.vstemplate file contains the following TemplateContent:
<TemplateContent>
<Project File="ProjectTemplate.csproj" ReplaceParameters="true">
<ProjectItem ReplaceParameters="true" TargetFileName="PropertiesAssemblyInfo.cs">AssemblyInfo.cs</ProjectItem>
<ProjectItem ReplaceParameters="true" OpenInEditor="true">Class1.cs</ProjectItem>
<ProjectItem>post_build.bat</ProjectItem>
</Project>
</TemplateContent>
Seems simple, but I must be doing something wrong.

Stoopid me!
I was thinking the post_build.bat file was not present was because when I created a new project it did not appear in the Solution Explorer in Visual Studio.
However ... it was present in the folder containing the new project.
The problem was I hadn't created a entry in an ItemGroup in the ProjectTemplate.csproj file.
Adding
<ItemGroup>
<None Include="post_build.bat" />
</ItemGroup>
solved the problem
