For prereleases, the Visual Studio command prompt sets the environment
variable
VSCMD_VER
to a value like15.7.0-pre.3.0
, which is notparseable by System.Version.
This could be handled by using a version parser that can handle this
SemVer 2 version as well as Windows 4-part versions, but that would be
another dependency, so I just special-cased the problematic dash.
