I've added a client-side JavaScript library to my ASP.NET project with Visual Studio 2017 LibMan. Since I'm developing this library, it's not in a CDN but only on my computer, in the solution directory. So I added it by selecting the "filesystem" source and providing the relative path to the library project directory.
Now Visual Studio has copied over the selected files. But I need to develop it further and make changes to the library source files.
How can I update them in my ASP.NET project? Adding them was easy with LibMan but now it left me alone. Restoring the libraries does nothing. Probably because they're already there, but outdated.
Do I need to copy the files myself again, from the library directory to the ASP.NET app directory? Then I don't need LibMan at all because if I have to copy the files manually every time from the second time on, I can just as well copy them manually the first time, too.
Looks like the "filesystem" source in LibMan is completely useless and should have never been added.
