TFS get latest version with new files

Question

I\'m having problems with TFS when adding new files or folders to my solution.

When any other people in the team try to \"get latest\" it updates every changed file

Answer 1

I just had the same problem. My co-worker created a new file (with content, not just an empty file). He did a check-in, and everything went well on his end. But the file never got downloaded to my project. I could go into Source control explorer and navigate to the file in question, then do a "get latest version" or "get specific version" on it, but it still didn't appear in my project.

Then my co-worker did some cosmetic changes to the file and did another commit. This time, when I did a simple "get latest version" on the whole project, the file downloaded without a problem.
