Hello
I’m new to Microsoft Team Foundation Server. I just installed a basic config on my home pc to work with my colleagues on part time projects.
The first thing I couldn’t come up with is how to add existing sql server’s database to source control? It works quite well for source files, but couldn’t manage to work it with database too. Is there a solution?
The next question is: In team queries, I see Iteration 1, Iteration 2 and so on. What does this mean? what’s those iterations and how/why should I use it?
p.S. I’m using VS 2010 and TFS 2010
Thanks 🙂
Iterations are a way of dividing up the work – you might think in phases instead. You can name them whatever you like. So a particular work item might be planned for “phase 3” or “the February release”. Then you can set up some queries that just show the current iteration, and you won’t be overwhelmed by a lot of work items. This works really well when looking at closed ones, since you can answer “what did we do in this iteration?” (or phase.)
