Assembly version numbers have reverted to default 1.0.0.0 ever since NuGet version 5.0.0-alpha-002

I haven't noticed this causing any build issues yet, but it is tripping up some other development tools.

Hi @DalekBaldwin, thanks for opening this issue. Do you know if it's still happening nowadays?

[DalekBaldwin]

Yes, it's still happening. You can inspect the metadata from here: https://nuget.info/packages/Giraffe/6.4.0

I noticed that this happens for other projects from the F# community as well. For example SQLProvider:

The fix is apparently to have this AssemblyInfo file defining the values. I found it on Fable too.

Yous shouldn't need a dedicated assembly info file FYI - merely setting the Version property in your project file is enough to ensure that all of the relevant versioning data is stamped into your assembly.
