• JVAF Visual studio locking up when doing TFS stuff.

  Hi, I am wondering if anyones else is having a similar problem as me. It seems at certain times when I do various actions (getting latest code, checking in something) the action completes and then Visual Studio locks up to the point where I have to kill the devenv.exe from the task list. It has happened to me quite a few times now. I am running the VPC image for the server and have installed the TFC from the en_vs_2005_tfs_trial.iso file. ...Show All

• CodieMorgan Upgrade problem - B3R to RTM

  I have just upgraded a single server deployment of TFS from the Beta 3 Refresh to the RTM version. Everything about the upgrade went without a hitch.

But, when I connect from a client, I receive the following; TF31002: Unable to co ...Show All

• tps100 Add classification field to Bug work item type

  The functionality in Team System that allows developers and testers to create, track and manage Bug work items will be extremely useful, but there is no way to classify or report on what types of bugs are present in the system. It would be very beneficial to teams if the VSTS team could add a bug "type" classification field to Bug work item type to allow classification of and reporting on different types of bugs. This would allow the team to rep ...Show All

• iowaporter Baseless merge ?

  I've been told a couple of times to workaround problems with branching via a Baseless Merge.  Now I'm pretty sure I can guess what this does based on the name, but I can't find any way to accomplish this through the VS2005 UI. I've read all the docs I can find and I've searched google and all I've come up with is the command line option to do "h.exe merge /baseless" from MSDN and the reference from Buck's blog.
