Description

Related to #1932.

There are default locations of NuGet configuration files. I believe Cake should follow them and discover NuGet.config automatically. That will make configuration of custom tool and addins much easier.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study NuGet's default configuration file locations and update Cake's internal NuGet client to automatically detect and use NuGet.config from those locations.
