问题
I am trying to "Get Latest Version" of a particular folder from TFS, using Powershell.
I have installed the TFS Snappin, and have been using TFS Power Tools cmdlets in PowerShell (such as Get-TfsChildItem and Select-TfsItem etc) [How do I set up TFS PowerShell Snapin ], and have gone through their documentation (which I didn't find explanatory enough!).
Confused, on the exact cmdlet to use, when I am trying to get the latest version of an entire Folder structure from TFS, that is mapped to my local drive (and not just a changeset or ChildItem).
Example : Tfs Path - $/APD-RepairSolutions/Main/Database
Mapped path - D:\TFS\APD-RepairSolutions/Main/Database.
I want a code, that would iteratively get the latest version of the entire folder Database,( that has number of tables,stored procedures etc.)
I am using ..
PS D:\Tfs\APD-RepairSolutions\Main\Database> $server=Get-TfsServer -Name http://tfs:8080/tfs
PS D:\Tfs\APD-RepairSolutions\Main\Database> Get-TfsChangeset -Recurse -Server $Server
Not helping my case - as it is only returning the latest changeset in the current directory.
回答1:
To get latest (tf get) use Update-TfsWorkspace.
Get-TfsChangeset is the equivalent of tf changeset.

Gotcha! with Update-TFSWorskpace. Has some helpful parameters as well. -Items is used to specify the exact items you want to update.
PS D:\Tfs\APD-RepairSolutions\Main>Update-TFSWorkspace -All -Overwrite -Force -Recurse -Items .\Database
The Workspace is replaced with updated versions of items. Thanks @Kmoraz!

If you would like to use the TFS API instead, you can use the Workspace.Get Method:
# Load the TFS assemblies
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client")
$ws = $vcServer.QueryWorkspaces("<WORKSPACENAME>", $null, $null);
# Specify properties of intended workspace get
$recursionType = [Microsoft.TeamFoundation.VersionControl.Client.RecursionType]::Full
$latestVersion = [Microsoft.TeamFoundation.VersionControl.Client.VersionSpec]::Latest
$getOptions = [Microsoft.TeamFoundation.VersionControl.Client.GetOptions]::GetAll
# Get what I want!
$ws.Get("$/Remote/Folder", $latestVersion, $recursionType, $getOptions)
Would be a good idea to replace the nulls with your domain login and computer name when Querying Workspaces.
