Reads a db schema and then adds/updates the documentation in the matching .emdx file.

This is a fork of http://eftsqldocgenerator.codeplex.com/ fixed-up for EF5

EFTSQLDocumentation.Generator.exe 	\
	-c "server=.;database=yourdatabase;Integrated Security=SSPI"  \
	-i path\to\your\Model.edmx

• -c, --connectionString... ConnectionString of the documented database
• -i, --input... original edmx file
• -o, --output [optional] ... output edmx file - Default : original edmx file

You may want to get the comments to be added to your generated model classes. You can do that by modifying your model.tt file as follows: https://gist.github.com/timabell/74bb6c6bbb7a4de843dc

With that in place you will have consistent model documentation across your schema, edmx and c# model, with the tooling to keep them in sync.
