We are moving to a process where multiple developers will be working on solutions in a couple of different TFS branches. Already there has been confusion where people open solutions from a branch different to wh开发者_开发问答at they intend. The MRU list in VS 2010 only shows the solution name, not branch name. It's also not clear once the solution is open unless people check Properties or mouse over the current tab.
Is there a VS option or extension where the current TFS branch is prominently shown in some way? Or even a solution based on what folders the solution has been opened from on the file system?
There is a very simple VS extension titled Customize Visual Studio Window Title. Once installed it will show the solution name plus the parent folder in the VS windows title bar instead of just the solution name.
For example:
TotallyAwesomeSolution becomes NewFeatureA\TotallyAwesomeSolution
It is not easy to see it. What I have done in the past is to create a workspace per branch. Then in the Source Control Explorer and the Pending Changes window you see the currently selected workspace and thus the active branch.
