CHANGE LOG
===========
2014-MAY-19
- TfsConfig.exe.config now gets replaced in addition to DLL.
- TfsConfig.exe.config now has configuration allowing us to download 8 blobs in parallel. By default .Net only allows two concurrent http(s) downloads from a given domain. We spin up 8 threads, so if the transfers took long enough threads could starve and throw System.TimeoutExceptions after making no progress for many minutes.
