How can I review the code affected by a specific changeset in Team System/TFS?


I've been all over the Visual Studio IDE and haven't been able to find where to see the itemized code/files affected by a specific changeset.

I found the Changeset option under "Find in source control..." option with the Source Control window up, but it's pretty useless at that point as it only lists the changeset for me but doesn't allow me to do anything with it after that.

Help?


Solution

  • To find the changeset in question hit Ctrl+G to open up the Find Changesets dialog. If you know the changeset ID you can type it in the Changeset from,to section and press Find. Then if you double-click the changeset you can view the files in it. By right clicking on a file you can view it or compare it with another version.

    Alternatively, use the Team Foundation Sidekicks as recommended by Joshua. They are very useful for many things - this included.
