I was wondering what the best approach might be in moving source code, with history, from one Team Project to another Team Project. I am not concerned with work items, reporting, or SharePoint sites, as the system we are going to be restoring from did not use these functionalities.

We are looking into the possibility of upgrading to Team Foundation Server 2008 for our development team. One of our primary reasons is some of the deployment capabilities surrounding BizTalk 2009, but I am curious what other benefits there are for other projects outside of BizTalk. Some of our interests so far are moving to a one click...
Currently I am working on a project that uses TFS as source control. I am in the middle of implementing a piece of functionality, but am blocked by work that needs to be done by outside resources.
