.NET SDK allows Central Package Management file: directory.packages.props to be overriden thru MSBuild property: DirectoryPackagesPropsPath . The file name and path to it can be customized
Example:
<DirectoryPackagesPropsPath>$([MSBuild]::NormalizePath('$(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)', 'foobar.props'))</DirectoryPackagesPropsPath>
