The tsconfig include property is not supported

[rabbitfang]

The include option in the tsconfig.json file is not read by grunt-ts. It basically has the same behavior as filesGlob, but is officially supported.

I've also encountered that the plugin cannot compile my project.
I have tsconfig.json with include and no exclude. I run npm run tsc to compile, where "tsc" is a npm script name:

  "scripts": {
    "tsc": "tsc",
    "test": "grunt test"
  },

It works fine.
But compiling via the plugin is failing.
Gruntfile:

    ts: {
        default : {
            tsconfig: 'true'
        }
    }

TypeScript 2.1
I'm not keed to replicate tsconfig settings in Gruntfile.

And even if I specify files in Grunt task via src optons while keeping tsconfig option, the plugin ignores them and compile everything

			default : {
				tsconfig: "tsconfig.json",
				src: [
					"src/**/*.ts",
					"src/**/.*.ts",
					"../../../Client/src/**/*.ts",
					"../../../Client/src/**/.*.ts"
				]
			}

@evil-shrike As a workaround, you can update the definition to be:

{
  ts: {
    default: {
      tsconfig: {
        tsconfig: 'path/to/tsconfig.json',
        passThrough: true,
        updateFiles: false,
      }
    }
  }
}

This causes grunt-ts to call tsc with just the tsconfig.json file (and no files to compile).

This is implemented in 6.0.0-beta.6 on npm. Sorry for the delay. Please give it a whirl and let me know if you hit any issues.

I am going to close this issue as I believe it is resolved in the latest beta. Please feel free to reopen/comment. Thank you!
