How to keep different configs i.e. CD and CMS in Tfs?

Im trying keep different configs files for separate environment CD&CMS, is there any tools or option i can use ?

im using vs2013 with tfs.

Solution

You can create a directory structure where you keep the CM and CD files. Below is an example of the directory structure

---App_Config

-----Include

--------zConfig

-----------CM Config

-----------CD Config

Then you can create a build script which takes into consideration the Build Configuration (debug, release). From this, when you build your solution it will know which config to take.

I would suggest to define new Build Configuration to minimiythe risk of confusion. Example, create 1 for CM and 1 for CD

This is an example how my build script looks like in my solution

if %Configuration% EQU  DEBUG ( if exist %SolutionDir%..\..\Website\App_Config\Include\ABBs\UAT  RMDIR /S /Q  %SolutionDir%..\..\Website\App_Config\Include\ABBs\UAT  if exist %SolutionDir%..\..\Website\App_Config\Include\ABBs\PRODCluster1 RMDIR /S /Q  %SolutionDir%..\..\Website\App_Config\Include\ABBs\PRODCluster1 if exist %SolutionDir%..\..\Website\App_Config\Include\ABBs\PRODCluster2 RMDIR /S /Q  %SolutionDir%..\..\Website\App_Config\Include\ABBs\PRODCluster2 if exist %SolutionDir%..\..\Website\App_Config\Include\ABBs\PRODCluster3 RMDIR /S /Q  %SolutionDir%..\..\Website\App_Config\Include\ABBs\PRODCluster3 )

It will copy the config file from my solution to the path \Website\App_Config\Include\ABBs\PRODCluster1 if my Build Configuration is Debug
