Hi, I'm going to do Scrum in VSTS (TFS 2010). I know about the famous process template SfTS from scrumforteamsystem.com. But It seems to be too heavy. It includes Sprints, Team Sprints, Work Stream,... I'm wondering if there is any other Scrum template process for TFS 2010? Any help would be appreciated. Regards, Afshar ...

I am attempting to import items from a legacy issue tracking system stored in an Excel sheet into Team Foundation Server. I loop through the rows of the Excel file successfully, and I can create new work items, but they are always in the Proposed state. If I attempt to change the state to Closed, then call the Validate method for the wor...
I am part of a team that releases versions of our software 4-5 times each year to our customers. We maintain the previous 2-3 versions of our product by correcting any errors that we come across in later versions. We are using TFS 2008 for source control and are trying to find the best way of maintaining the older versions. We currentl...
Will TFS automatically alert the originator of a bug when resolved or do you have to configure Alerts Editor (see TFS Power Tools) to do this? Certaintly would be nice if this was default behavior. ...

I have an older laptop that I won't get around to replacing for another month or two. It has 1GB of memory so I'm trying to squeeze applications as much as possible. In Visual Studio 2010, it has apparently loaded some extensions related to Team Foundation Server, since I have menu items and dialog choices for it. Questions: Would I ...
From within TFS 2008, is there a way to view the disk space taken up on the server by a project (or by all projects)? Or is this something that can only be done by looking directly at the underlying database? ...
Hi all, We are going to applying VSTS 2010 in our company. This includes Visual Studio, TFS, TFS Build and ALM. It's predictable that we would encounter a wave of new questions about their usage. But the problem is I don't know which places we could do questioning. StackOverflow is programming base question site and ServerFault is not...
I've been playing with Hudson and got the TFS source control integration running. Problem is: it only allows you to specify a single folder as the source root. We've got a lot of projects that share resources (including standard shared libraries). If I could hard-link a folder like I could in source safe this wouldn't be an issue. I ...

My team is looking to switch from source safe to something else (finally). I think we have it narrowed down to Team Server 2010 or Subversion. I would prefer Subversion, but my boss has concerns about how we will get support if were using Subversion and something goes wrong. It was suggested that we pay for support. So my question to t...
I have got a problem with reusing the same MSBuild targets for different build types on TFS. Let me describe the situation. I have got two build types (CI - for continuous integration and RC - for release candidate). So I have got two build types defined in the TFS. Their *.proj files are under: - $/Repository/TeamBuildTypes/CI - $/Re...

Hi Is it possible to migrate from TFS 2008 to Git, and still preserve all the history, etc? I've seen some references that talk about doing it through SVN, but that seems rather complicated, and complicates my mission to introduce Git at my job. ...
Wednesday I had to restore from a back-up image I made on Monday. At the time of the snapshot I had about 20 files modified, which I later checked in, and more, on Tuesday. Now that I am back to a snapshot from Monday morning, my workspace has all of these files checked-out or added, etc. even my check-in comments and work-item assoc...
I can successfully create an iteration via: However, when I try and assign this path to a work item and save it the field doesn't validate. If I run the tests again (with the iteration already created) the same code succeeds. Does anybody know how to make this work? ...
So i finally have everything up and running and everyone is mostly happy - TFS 2010 rocks! However i now want to add office sharepoint, i didn't want to have it installed first because i was worried that it would stuff with things and i wanted to look back on the TFS installation, once i knew how portals were created. So what is the be...
I'm looking for a TFS 2010 GUI client that I can use outside of an IDE. I'm only looking to use the source control features in this case. I'm not talking about work items or build management. Ideally it would be a complete client that can be used on a machine where Visual Studio is not installed. Options I know about and why I'm not s...
