My workspace is set to map to the root of the TFS server, which has many projects. When I do a tfpt uu, it gets the entire server. I don't want to cloak every folder that I don't currently need. Is there as easy way to do something like

tfpt uu root/theFolderINeed

  • tfpt uu should only get files that you have pending changes on to compare I believe. – Dylan Smith Jan 14 '14 at 22:13
  • Nope, it gets the entire workspace (which is the root of the TFS server in my case) – Foo Jan 14 '14 at 22:21
  • @DylanSmith is correct, it *undoes unchanged checkouts*. If you don't have anything checked out, there's nothing to do. Are you regularly checking out the root? Are you using a local workspace or a server workspace? – Edward Thomson Jan 14 '14 at 23:07

tfpt uu will undo any pending changes (check-outs) on files that are identical to the server version of that file (undu unchanged).

The only files that command should be "getting" are files which you have pending change on, so it can do a compare to determine if they are unchanged.

If you are trying to get (aka download) a specific folder, then tfpt uu is not the correct command.
