[Question] - Cache Busting
See original GitHub issueASP.NET 5 has a handy way of cache busting via the asp-append-version tag:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="~/Css/somecssfile.min.css" asp-append-version="true"/>
This appends some file version hash to the url - which will mean the url changes when the file changes:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/somecssfile.min.css?v=UdxKHVNJA5vb1EsG9O9uURFDfEE3j1E3DgwL6NiDGMc" />
How does cache busting work with Smidge? Can we just continue to use the asp-append-version tag helper?

That is Umbraco’s implementation and usage of Smidge.
FYI I found that if I change the Version number in the “RuntimeMinification” setting then it appears in the url. I find this confusing that there is 2 locations for version now - the other under the “smidge” section in the configuration. Should only be 1 place.
"RuntimeMinification": { "UseInMemoryCache": false, "CacheBuster": "Version", "Version": "33" },
