Visual Studio 2012 Web Publish keeps overwriting existing files with same version

Question

Just installed VS2012 and run across a strange behavior by the one click publish feature.

I'm publishing via FTP and everything works fine except it seems that VS insists on overwriting some files over and over even though nothing's changed.

In VS2010 clicking the "publish" button over and over just runs through the steps and finishes in a few seconds, in VS2012 it takes about two minutes as it keeps copying a 5mb dll and some other stuff too.

P.S the "delete all existing files prior to publish" is off

Answer 1

It's an absolute pain. I've resorted to keeping the solution open in VS2010 alongside the VS2012 and using VS2010 to publish, it's annoying, but it's faster...
