It is possible to create a nuget 'master libs' type arrangement. I recall doing it in my last role. You create a nuget.config file in the same directory as the solution file containing the shared location. It worked great repositories repository path=..\MyProject\packages.config /

Hi Greg, Check out http://docs.nuget.org/docs/workflows/using-nuget-without-committing-packagesfor details of how to get nuget to manage the dependencies without checking in all of those files into source control. This gets even more powerful if you have a corporate NuGet server so that you get
