Answer 1

As a work-around you could do this by hand. Make a copy in the _Solution Explorer* of your Web.config and rename it to Web.Debug.config or whatever you like.

Unload the project and then Edit the project. Find the ItemGroup element that contains your newly created config file and add the <DependentUpon>Web.config</DependentUpon> element there, like so:

After that, it will look like this in the Solution Explorer:

Now you can edit your newly added config file with the required transformations.
