Hi I have a couple of questions related to TFS and source control: 1) I was wondering if TFS2010 supports older versions of projects, such as projects from Visual Studio 2008, and whether it can build those projects normally. 2) I'm also curious about upgrading. Can I just upgrade my existing TFS 2008 to 2010 without installing the n...
I am thinkin about building my first TFS 2008 Build Server. However, I would like to use it with VS 2010 solutions targeting both .NET 3.5 and 4.0. Will this work and what should I watch out for? ...
I have a test setup where I have many very similar unit tests that I need to run. For example, there are about 40 stored procedures that need to be checked for existence in the target environment. However I'd like all the tests to be grouped by their business unit. So there'd be 40 instances of a very similar TestMethod in 40 separate cl...
I'd like to publish a set of test results to a place where team members who don't have TFS can see the results. Does TFS do anything like this easily? I see that that test results do get published, but without a TFS license I don't see any way for people to view them. I think I can do this easily by pulling the XML from the test result...
I would like to be able to select the build agent to use to deploy my web application. When the code is being built for testing I would like for it to use a certain build agent and deploy to our test server and when the code is being built for production I would like for it to use another build agent and deploy it to our production serve...
I have some changesets in a TFS 2008 branch which were not merged back into trunk. Time has passed, and now no-one is entirely sure which changesets have made it into trunk. I understand that TFS 2010 allows you to see graphically which branches a changeset has been merged to, but how can I find this out in TFS 2008? ...
Hi Im trying to set up TFS 2010 on a machine that is connected to a network, but not on the domain. I am trying to connect this to a SQL Server that is also connected to the network and also not on the domain. When I run through the TFS configuration Wizard and try to connect to the SQL Server, it fails with a message "A connection can ...
Hi All, Is there a way to revert changes for a particular changeset in visual studio 2005 and tfs/2005? Thanks, rod. ...
As of now we are using vs2005. We are newly setting up TFS 2008. How do I connect TFS 2008 client to vs 2005 without upgrading it to vs2008 in my system? When I installed TFS 2008 client the options are appearing in VS2008 but not in vs2005. ...
We have a local Team Foundation Server 2008 that we keep our code under version control. However, we also have a paranoid client that has their own Visual Source Safe installation that wants us to keep a running copy of the code on their server as well. As such, I'm hoping there is a way I can just do a nightly push from our TFS reposi...
I'm getting an issue with TFS where the documents folder is marked with a red cross. As far as I can tell, this seems to be a security issue, however, I am set-up as project admin on the relevant projects. I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s a security issue from running the TFS Project Admin tool (available here). When I run this, ...
Can i use powershell script to copy a set of files from a folder to Clear Case..?? i have the task of synchronising files from TFS to Clear Case.. like i need to take a set of files aftr a certain date from tfs server and synchronise these files to Clear case.. ...
My scenario is this: I am currently testing out a new Team Foundation Server 2010 installation; which we will be moving to shortly. Upgrading builds to work with TFS 2010 and the new MSBuild seems like a lot of work (it does not work out-of-the-box, at least). So what I would like to do, is to repurpose our old TFS Server to be a build...
So I am using Visual Studio 2008 and VS.PHP 2.9 with Team Foundation Server to develop my PHP application. Unfortunately, I have to use TFS and Visual Studio - no switching to Subversion or Git. I am in the process of writing an MSBuild script to, whenever files are checked into a certain directory in the tree, get the latest version o...
I need to create a branch at a specific Changeset in TFS. Is this doable? For example, I have changeset 1528 that was the last check in on my project. But I want to branch from changeset 1487. Can this be done? If so, how? Note: I am using TFS 2008 ...
Hi, We are currently taking VS2010 for a testdrive and so far we are a little stumped with how it just won't cooperate with our existing Team Foundation Server 2008. We still have all our projects on .NET 3.5 and whenever we are now building a solution that contains a unit test project (which automatically builds in .NET 4.0) the TFS wo...
I have recently upgraded from TFS2005 to 2008, and in doing so, lost the connection to Sharepoint so now I cannot access my project portal from VSS or TFS Web. I have a working WSS 3.0 installation on the same server as TFS, and TFS is working fine other than the Sharepoint disconnect. I have even been able to go into Sharepoint and cr...
I have TFS2008 and have a build running, however, I want to automate the deployment of the build folder and place the build into the inetpub folder it belongs to. I.E.: Run Build After Build, automatically place the new built solution into Inetpub/wwwroot/websitefolder I have tried xcopy, robocopy and synctoy 2.1 and I cannot get an...

The way I have setup TFS for our team is to have branches per environment. Contained within this project is multiple applications and libraries that logically group together. $/TfsProjectA/Development/Source/WebApps/WebApplicationA $/TfsProjectA/Development/Source/WebApps/WebApplicationB $/TfsProjectA/Development/Source/Libraries...
