Team System & Read Only Files

time to read 1 min | 130 words

Probably because of Source Safe, Team System Source Control believes in read only files, which means that just about everything that I do with code generation started to break. Part of my build process is generating quite a bit of functionality, but now I need to special case for the read only, and then remember to check in any changes that were made.

Is there such a thing as Tortoise for TeamFoundation? It drives me crazy that I need to remember that I put a file in the file system, since TF will gladly ignore anything that I didn't explicitly told it to check, and this will break the build for other people, without me being aware of it until the shouts starts.
