@@ -35,7 +35,7 @@ Compatible with both SDK Pack and NuGetizer. Does not require NuGetizer.
 - **Fragment resolution**: explicit `<!-- #fragment -->` pairs win (placement controls whether a section title is included); otherwise GitHub heading auto-anchors match and **include the heading line** (e.g. `## Usage` for `#usage`).
 - **Token replacement**: after includes, `$token$` placeholders are replaced via `@(PackageReplacementToken)` (official NuGet: Id/Version/Author/Title/Description/Copyright/Configuration; plus Authors and Product; consumer-extensible). Case-insensitive names; **last value wins** for duplicates (never fails). Same item name as NuGetizer for coexistence; newer NuGetizers can adopt this model.
 - **`CollectReplacementTokens`**: populates default `@(PackageReplacementToken)` items. Depend on it before using tokens. Consumers add items anytime; `AfterTargets="CollectReplacementTokens"` to remove/replace defaults; `$(CollectReplacementTokensDependsOn)` / `BeforeTargets` for pre-work.
-- **`ProcessPackageReadme`**: pack-time target (`DependsOnTargets=CollectReplacementTokens;$(ProcessPackageReadmeDependsOn)`) runs the process task then retargets pack items to the intermediate file. Does **not** warn on leftover `$token$` (readme may document that syntax).
+- **`ProcessPackageReadme`**: pack-time target (`DependsOnTargets=CollectReplacementTokens;$(ProcessPackageReadmeDependsOn)`) runs the process task then retargets pack items to the intermediate file. Does **not** warn on leftover `$token$` (readme may document that syntax). Target-time `Update`/`Remove` must use `%(Identity)` + a `Condition` (or Remove of a filtered item list); `Update="path"` matches every `None`/`Content` item on Unix and clears `Pack` on license files (NU5030).
 - **`ReplacePackageTokens`**: public task for arbitrary InputFile→OutputFile replacement with `Tokens="@(PackageReplacementToken)"`. Emits **RDM001** for remaining unknown placeholders (suppress via `NoWarn`). Suitable for incremental targets (`Inputs`/`Outputs`).
 - **GitHub relative URLs**: after tokens, relative Markdown links/images are rewritten to `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/{owner}/{repo}/{commit}/…` when `ReadmeExpandGitHubUrls` is true (default), `RepositoryUrl` is a github.com absolute URL, and a commit is available (`RepositoryCommit` → `RepositorySha` → `SourceRevisionId`). Auto-skips otherwise. Opt out with `ReadmeExpandGitHubUrls=false`. Uses Markdig `LinkInline` + `NormalizeRenderer` (same as NuGetizer).
 - **ILRepack Markdig**: Markdig and its polyfill deps are internalized into `build/Readme.dll` so the package ships a single task assembly (no satellite DLLs under `build/`).
