Team Foundation Server Power Tools (October 2008)

I missed this new release of the Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Foundation Server Power Tools back in October.

New in the October Release:

Team Members

  • Adds a new node under each Team Project to the Team Explorer called “Team Members” that identifies people who work on the project. Serves as a “pivot point” for information about and operations on people and teams.

Windows Shell Extension

  • Allows core version control operations within Windows Explorer without using Team Explorer.

PowerShell Support

  • Provides a PowerShell pipeline and cmdlets for TFS. Initial support is for basic version control operations.

TFPT (updated)

  • tfpt searchcs – the Search Changesets Power Tool brings up a dialog from which the user can search for changesets that match specific combination of criteria including server path, committed date range, committed user, check-in comments and check-in notes.
  • tfpt unshelve /undo – finds all pending changes in your workspace that match the changes in the shelveset and undoes them (including deleting the local files for pending adds).
