I am getting started with using TFS for source code control with LabVIEW. I am using TFS 2013 and LabVIEW 2013.
I have a few questions:
What is the best way to move files from one project folder to another? The "move on disk" doesn't appear to be a good option. I want to be able to make file moves if needed and don't want my project to end up blowing up with conflicts.
It appears that once source control is set up in LabVIEW that all check in/check out operations need to happen in LabVIEW and not TFS or windows explorer. Correct?
I just noticed the "Include callers when checking out files" option. I am assuming that is probably a good option to select so that they callers will be modified and saved as needed.
Does having files set up as auto populating have any negative effects on how source control is done?
Unfortunately it appears that we are stuck using TFS for source control since the firmware developers are using it and it is a company application now.
Any help or guidance you can provide would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Joe
