How to publish Umbraco from Visual Studio without getting the install wizard

I have set up a new project in Visual Studio 2012 to do some development on Umbraco. I am running Umbraco 7.0.0

When I publish to my staging server the first time, everything goes as expected, the site loads, I get the installation wizard and all is well.

Now when I make changes to some of the files I have created in VS2012 (not touching the core files) and I publish again it "resets" my previous Umbraco installation and forces me to go through the installation wizard again..

Is there any way around this?

EDIT: Ok so it seems the actual installation wizard will auto perform an "upgrade" when publishing to an existing database, yet I want to skip this step alltogether.

Anyone have any ideas?

Make sure the value of umbracoConfigurationStatus is not empty in the web.config after the deploy or else it will run the installion wizard
