 Description   

Microsoft PDB files, and development tools support "Source Server". This allows a user to embed the Git location of each file into the PDB with the exact path to each file used to build the product. This allows a user to debug a crash dump and/or binary and examine the corresponding source file without the need for a local copy of the source. There is no need to sync a local repository. This mechanism does not add code to the PDB, but pointers to the repository locations for each file.
