Branch Current changes then “rollback” in TFS

Question

I have a specific changeset that I want to "rollback" my Development branch to, but I want to take all of the the changes after that specific changeset and put them in to a new branch. Is this possible in TFS? If so, how could I do such a thing?

Thanks, Dave

Answer 1

Well.. The easiest way is to do exactly what you just said.

Branch the existing code into a new spot. Then get the changeset you want, checkout the project, and check the changeset back in.

Answer 2

If you have the Team Foundation Power Tools installed, you can use the command tfpt rollback to create a changeset in your client that will take care of the rollback.

Answer 3

I ended up branching at the changeset I wanted, naming it Development-stable, then renamed Development to Development-experimental and then renamed Development-stable to Development.
