dotnet new with preview builds should succeed

See original GitHub issue

I run into this problem frequently. I know what the problem and various workarounds are, however I would like to see an inbox solution to it. This experience shouldn’t happen, IMO. Restore should succeed for preview builds.

Yeah, in the short term, I have thought that making preview builds drop nuget.configs with the projects would be the best experience.

@richlander I assume this is because you are downloading from the daily builds listed on the cli readme? Those are also incoherent so even the nuget cache lzma is just a complete waste of time and space I think 😦

Longer term, I’d like to explore an experience where NuGet is not needed to resolve platform refs or to run apps that just depend on the platform.

That said, we need to be a little careful because we are likely to change that preview source in the future.
