I am trying to use tfpt unshelve /migrate to unshelve my shelveset on to a different branch. When it does the unshelve, it also attempts to merge the file with the file in the target branch. I do not understand where its getting the base version of this file. Can anyone tell me what version is base?
I never really found an answer to this, so i'm just left with my guess:
tfpt looks at the different versions of the file and constructs (in memory only) a 'base version' of the file. In some cases, perhaps this works well, but for me it did not work at all. I was unable to use it for merge and migrate.
