No one likes them so SQL Developers do your DBA’s a favour and stop them from ever being deployed 🙂

This new tool for the SSDT Dev Pack adds a menu item (Tools–>SSDT Dev Pack –> Find Duplicate Indexes) what it does is scan all the projects in the solution (it doesn’t follow “this database” references to examine them, maybe a future version) and then print to the output window a list of all the duplicate indexes based on the table, the columns and included columns - I don’t check anything else so you might actually want a duplicate in some circumstances but these should be very few and far between.
