No More Read Only Files… Please Welcome Local Workspace Feature in TFS2012

In the previous versions of TFS, files were marked as read only to indicate that they were in a checked in state. It was also a pain to check in the files that were processed outside Visual Studio from Team Explorer. Things have changed!! TFS2012 comes loaded with a new feature that is the “Local Workspace” feature.

In this presentation, Ahmed will show the Local Workspace feature in action. Ahmed will also show the new look of team explorer in Visual Studio 2012 while presenting the topic.
