Issue encountered while attempting to package Azure project in Visual Studio 2015 Update1 due to difficulty copying Typescript files

Since upgrading to VS 2015 Update 1 (that includes Typescript 1.7) and Azure SDK 2.8, packaging my Azure application for deployment has become a challenge due to an error in the file path where the packager is attempting to copy the js output file:

Error Unable to copy file "D:\X\XX\XXX\App\services\editor\ruler-manager.js" to "D:\X\XX\XXX\obj\Debug\PE.Web\D:\X\XX\XXX\App\services\editor\ruler-manager.js". The format of the given path is not supported. PE.Architecture C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v14.0\Windows Azure Tools\2.8\Microsoft.WindowsAzure.targets 2787

It appears that the directory has been duplicated, causing an invalid colon in the output path.

This issue seems to be linked to TFS Build error after installing Visual Studio 2015 Update 1, , and https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/5894

Update: Although a workaround involving adding ContinueOnError="WarnAndContinue" to the Copy task within the CopyWebRoleFiles target in Microsoft.WindowsAzure.targets was suggested, it did not resolve the issue for us:

We tried to work around it by manually adding ContinueOnError="WarnAndContinue" to the Copy task within the CopyWebRoleFiles target, within Microsoft.WindowsAzure.targets.
