Visual Studio does not deploy ASP.NET Core views when they are in an area

Setup

• Visual Studio 2015 (with Update 3 and latest hotfix as of today)
• .NET Core SDK (preview 2) installed
• Create a new ASP.NET Core project
• Add a new area, register it and add views in it
• Deploy it to IIS using web deploy in Visual Studio

Part of my project.json

"publishOptions": {
  "include": [
    "wwwroot",
    "Views",
    "Areas/**/Views",
    "appsettings.json",
    "web.config"
  ]
},

My publish profile

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

  </PropertyGroup>
</Project>

The problem

After successful deploy the area view are missing from the server. There is no Area folder nor the area's views are located in the Views folder. All other views (outside of areas) are present.

Am I doing something wrong or this problem is known? Does anyone had the same problem and if so what is the solution?

Temporary fix as stated on https://github.com/aspnet/Mvc/issues/4645 is to add

"**/*.cshtml",

in publishOptions.include.

Worked in my case.
