I have to update the work-items of my team very often. But since my office is in a different country from the other team members, the browsing process is very inconvenient: every time I click a work-item, my Visual Studio (VS) tries to connect to the TFS server, costing me 1-2 seconds! I want VS to stop this behavior so that no connection is called while I am browsing the work-tem list.
My question is: Can I do this? And how to do it if I can?
