gulp.task('minify-cshtml', function(){
  gulp.src(['./Views/Shared/_Layout_Template.cshtml'])
    .pipe(rename('_Layout.cshtml')) // File Rename
    .pipe(minifyCshtml({
      htmlComments: true,   // Remove HTML comments <!-- -->
      jsComments: true,     // Remove JS comments /* */
      razorComments: true,  // Remove Razor comments @* *@
      whitespace: true      // Remove white-space
      replaceHash: /hash/ig // Replace 'hash' to datetime string
