TFS Version Tree extension is designed to show the history of any source control element across multiple branches including there label and merge information. It also allows user to trace the merged changes across branches for better bug tracking and investigation.
TFS Source control feature is very popular in developer community. The source control has all the required metadata like changeset information, labels, changed by, changed date, merges and many more. However, many times developers have to perform multiple steps to access them. For example:
To find out the changeset went in which build.
To find out who changed particular code and on which branch.
To compare versions between across branches
To trace merges across branches based on selected changeset
and many more...
This extension is designed to provide quick information about your changes and branched history of selected file or folder.
