Craig, I asked Ed Hintz, and here's what he has to say.

You can bind to the following:

View.TfsSourceControlExplorer

Edit.Goto

This functionality was added this late in the release cycle after visual\doc freeze so we just reused the Edit.Goto menu.

We need to add a Team.GotoChangeset DTE command. I’ll write a feature request.

Why can't I invoke the Find Changeset dialog without having the Source Control Explorer window active?

I've created a shortcut to the command but it will only work if the Source Control Explorer window has focus.

Now that the RC is out, I thought I'd post a summary with links to version control posts from the last...

Thanks for the good feedback thus far.

Just remembered this wishlist item:

Please, please, please can we have an option to easily ignore whitespace when comparing differences!

One feature I miss from Visual Source Safe is the ability to see ALL checked out files, and then sort that list by checkout date.

Maybe that won't be a common requirement for many people, be we find that our programmers sometimes forget to check things in... Being able to sort the list really helps find the forgotten checkins!

I would like to see the following features in a power toy:
1. Ability to remove another developer lock/edit.
2. Ability to easily add/update associated files to source control that are not necessarily source code in a project (related documents, spreadsheets, etc)

Well this is a long shot but i would like a destroy operation on version control. My version control is getting messy fast without it....

I agree with your statement about online. We'd like to get all of the tfpt.exe functionality into a VS plugin power toy, with online being the most requested. I think unshelve with merge will be highly popular as folks start to use shelving to coordinate and test changes prior to checking them in.

Well, since you asked... ;)

The tfpt commandline powertoy has a bunch of great features and I think it would be great to see VS integration for some of those. Offline support in particular is something I will use *all* the time. As a bonus you could even add some magic to track renames done through the IDE so that they resolve correctly on reconnect, as opposed to the commandline tfpt which can't track offline renames.

Unshelve (with merge), UU and Rollback also seem like they'd be very useful, but offline support is the killer feature for me. I do an awful lot of work on the train :)
