Visual Studio 2012 Nuget Update Packages keep redownloading -

my problem is, not connected net have find net connection everytime 'update-package' update template.

is there way can save bundle updates locally when 'update-package' dont have connected net update packages?

you can create folder nuget packages, illustration d:\nugetlocalsource\, , add together specify bundle source in nuget settings. tools -> nuget bundle manager -> packages manager settings -> bundle sources -> add.

when updated packages first time downloaded solution_folder\packages\. can re-create *.nupkg files packages folder local source , able utilize them offline other solutions. or can pre-download packages nuget.org way.

one more place can find downloaded packages locally - it's nuget cache. it's placed in c:\users\<user>\appdata\local\nuget\cache. here nice article how utilize it
