Nuspec contentFiles example

Question

NuGet 3.3 ( release notes ) was released yesterday and a new contentFiles element ( documents ) is supported . However, I cannot get this to work.

I am using NuGet.exe as a build process. It has been updated to v3.3. I also upgraded Visual Studio to 2015 Update 1 and rebooted.

Here is my nuspec file (Hello.world.nuspec):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<package>
    <metadata minClientVersion="3.3">
        <id>Hello.world</id>
        <version>1.0.0</version>
        <title>Greeting library</title>
        <authors>Timothy Klenke</authors>
        <description>Greetings for the world</description>
    </metadata>
    <contentFiles>
        <files include="*" />
    </contentFiles> 
</package>

I run from the command line using the following:

nuget.exe update -Self
nuget.exe pack Hello.world.nuspec

And I get the following:

MSBuild: msbuild '14.0' 'C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\bin'. "Hello.world.nuspec". "" " http://schemas.microsoft.com/packaging/2010/07/nuspec.xsd " "contentFiles" " http://schemas.microsoft.com/packaging/" 2010/07/nuspec.xsd '. : "" " http://schemas.microsoft.com/packaging/2010/07/nuspec.xsd ".
