TFS "TF UNDO" for all users in all workspace

Question

Hi

I have some quater million files checked out by developers in project GIGA, branch name is: giga_aks.

$/GIGA/Branches/giga_aks

Now, what command I can fire to UNDO files checked out by "ALL" of the users in "ALL/ANY" workspace they have created/used.

NOTE: I don't want to run a command multiple times for each user / user-workspace.

 

Pls advise if this can be possible at command level or using TFS Sidekicks?

 

Thanks

Arun Sangal

Hi Arun

Status Sidekick should display whatever is checked out on a specific project, you can select All & undo pending changes. However, better way would be via TFS API...

--SS

Answer 2

Hello Arun,

Thanks for your post.

For your issue, I appreciate TFSRocks’ great advice. Just as you said, it may be impossible to use TF UBDO for all uses in all workspace. If the workspace option is not specified and you are running the command from a directory that has been added to a workspace, the current workspace is used.

So the work around is just like TFSRock said, use TFS API to achieve your purpose.

Thanks,
