has been both patient and persistent.\u00a0 I really hope this will address all the pent up demand and all the mis-named projects out there \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>You can try it by navigating to your project in the VSO web experience, then hit the settings icon on the upper right.\u00a0 There are actually two places in the settings UI you can rename a project \u2013 this is one of them:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/bharry\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2015\/04\/8306.image_thumb_21F06F46.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full

it was quite a bit of work and we\u2019ve worked hard to make it seamless.\u00a0 But like anything, when you change the name of something, anything that references is needs to be updated.\u00a0 This can be as simple as urls pointing to the project from a document on some Sharepoint site, a wiki or anything else.\u00a0 We\u2019ve worked to make this as seamless as possible by automatically updating names that we have access to but we\u2019ve written a document to help you understand what you need to think about when you <a title=\"Rename a team project\" href=\"http:\/\/go.microsoft.com\/fwlink\/p?LinkId=528893\">rename a team project<\/a>.\u00a0 There are a few manual steps still in the document that will be automated over the next several weeks \u2013 but we think there\u2019s enough here that we\u2019d love to get people trying it and giving feedback.<\/p>\n<p>As I promised long ago, Team Project Rename will also be part of TFS 2015 and will be included in the TFS 2015 Release Candidate that will be available in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>I look forward to hearing your feedback.<\/p>\n<p>Brian<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today we enabled Team Project rename on all VS Online accounts.\u00a0 Team Project rename is our #1 User Voice request, by
