TFS Build definition - include external files

Question

How can I split a TFS build definition in few files?

Specific: I have a lot of XmlUpdate definitions in <Target Name="AfterCompile"> section. So I would like to allocate them in separated files and include this file in the main proj one.

Thank you.

I presume you are using the upgrade template and talking about TFSBuild.proj file? Yes, you can include any file using the tag. You would have to have the file already present on the build server and not include it in the external file in the workspace.
