Time flies, and the end of mainstream support for Team Foundation Server 2010 is July 14th. Yep, we’re celebrating it on Bastille Day. If you are still using TFS 2010, now is a great time to upgrade to TFS 2013 Update 4. Also, our next public pre-release of TFS 2015 will be “go-live” (the current CTP is not), meaning you can ...

Team Foundation Version Control client API example for TFS 2010 and newer

March 10, 2012 Mar 10, 2012 03/10/12

Listing the work items associated with changesets for a path

February 1, 2012 Feb 1, 2012 02/1/12

Buck Hodges

Philip wrote a simple app to list the work items associated with the changesets for a given path, and it’s in some ways an enhanced update of Naren’s post. Given an URL to a collection and a server path (e.g., $/myproject/coolthing), it will list the work items that are associated with the most recent 25 checkins. This sample...

Buck Hodges

Philip, a dev on version control, recently helped with a question on how to get the TFS objects we use in our UI. I thought I’d post since others may find it useful. We recently had a request from a customer for a VS add-in that would be able to access the same TfsTeamProjectCollection and VersionControlServer objects that our ...

Brian posted about the cumulative update for TFS (the TFS SKU, not the client/VS) back in June. After it was released we learned of a couple of bugs in it, including one where upgrades would not work in certain cases. Last Thursday, we re-released it with all of the known bugs fixed.
