Can a branch be made from a previous changeset?

问题

I need to create a branch at a specific Changeset in TFS. Is this doable?

For example, I have changeset 1528 that was the last check in on my project. But I want to branch from changeset 1487. Can this be done?

If so, how?

Note: I am using TFS 2008

回答1:

Yes. When a branch is created you can choose the historical point in time when it takes effect (date, changeset, etc).

See Visual Studio TFS Branching and Merging Guide for some great information on recommended branching practices.

Or How to: Branch Files and Folders (MSDN) for more explicit instructions on getting this dialog up to create a branch.

Visual Studio 2010 and later added support for this functionality.
