I’m attempting to sync Intellij’s built in TFS plugin workspace with the one used by TEE’s command line ‘tf’ command on OSX Mountain Lion and failing miserably.
This question appears to be very similar to mine, however it has no reference to what one should do when the computer name reported by each tool is different.
Intellij says my computer name is the fully qualified domain name (ex: hostname.domain.com) whereas the ‘tf workspaces’ command reports the computer name to be just the the hostname (ex: hostname). Consequently, they are unable to use the same workspace. I do know that you can change the computer name of a workspace, but I’d like to use both at the same time as we have some ant tasks using the ‘tf’ command locally. Our Windows users in the group are able to do this just fine.
Is there any way to make these tools report the same thing for the computer name? I believe I could then use the ‘tf workspaces’ command and enable me to use both at the same time in the same workspace. Much obliged.
It’s not supported (according to the responsible developer). Please submit a request and we’ll see what can be done to make it work.
