Team Foundation Server Integration

Posted on by Maria Khalusova

If you’ve read our latest posts, you might get excited about the cool stuff that’s coming in Maia, but wait a minute; there are already lots of great features in IntelliJ IDEA 8.1 that you can touch right now, while looking forward to get the first Maia EAP.
I’m talking, for example, about the full Team Foundation Server integration, that is already available. All you need from version control is included.

  • You can perform all common VCS functions like commit, update, revert, show differences and history, automatic check out of modified files, etc.
  • You can create and merge branches, lock and unlock files and view the history of committed and incoming changes, link the existing work items to your changelist.
  • IntelliJ IDEA also lets you create and manage TFS workspaces.

But that’s not all. The most remarkable thing is that IntelliJ IDEA’s TFS integration doesn’t require Microsoft’s TFS client installed; furthermore, it works under any OS, not only Windows.

    I cannot connect IntellJ Ultimate 14.1.4 to my TFS Online (a.k.a., unfortuntely misnamed by Microsoft as “Visual Studio Online” instead of what it really is,”TFS Online) using VCS / TFS / Edit Configuration / Add … / Address https://myname.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection / Auth: (all three fail) /.

    Is there some *DEFINITIVE* *DETAIL* instructions on how to connect JetBrains products such as IntelliJ Ultimate 14.1.4 to “TFS Online” (a.k.a., Visual Studio Online)?

Shared Indexes Plugin Unveiled

Indexing is one of the key features under the hood of IntelliJ IDEA. It is designed to simplify your work by teaching the IDE the ins and outs of your code even before you start applying any changes. The IDE indexes classes, methods, and other code elements to create a virtual map of your project. At JetBrains, we believe that the time you spend indexing at startup will save you precious hours when you are busy coding and want nothing to disturb your creative flow. It’s better to have your project fully indexed before you need contextual help with code completion, or have to navigate somewher
