| RULE_B | Version.props imported outside allowed files | Remove import. Only DPP or eng/DBP allowed. |
| RULE_C | Version.props not a symlink (in consumer repos) | Recreate symlink, never copy the file |

Allowed Version.props Import Owners
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
Directory.Packages.props | CPM-enabled projects |
eng/Directory.Build.props | CPM-disabled projects |
