SYMPTOMS
========
Header files in the External Dependencies folder in Developer Studio are not
added to source control. They also do not appear in any of the source control
dialog boxes.
CAUSE
=====
Files in the External Dependencies are considered external to the project; that
is, not part of the project (though still required for a build). Since the files
are not part of the project, it does not make sense to add them to source
control.
RESOLUTION
==========
If the files in the External Dependencies folder really are part of the project,
simply drag and drop them into the project. Once the files are in the project,
they may be added to source control.
STATUS
======
This behavior is by design.
