I'd like to clear my (as I call it) not checked-in items history of source control in visual studio.

These items are there because in a project I did include the project via adding the actual windows folder to the team foundation server; and there are bin files and resharper files that are never going to be checked-in.

Everytime I have to check-in something, I need to scroll all the way down to my clearly added project files; and that's annoying.

Thanks in advance.

These files should never have been added to source control. Your best bet is to delete from the TFS.

You should only check-in files that need "version control"; Resharper files, bin\ & obj\ folders, *.suo, *.user files, etc. should be removed from TFS.

When adding new files to TFS, it has a filter no to add these to source control. See here on MSDN for more details.

  • Yes, I know that, I thought by default they were filtered. Learned the hard way though. Thanks anyway. – Beytan Kurt Mar 28 '12 at 23:00
  • They should have been filtered during the initial Add, but you can override that and check in what you want. – DaveShaw Mar 28 '12 at 23:11
  • (: That sounds like me; thanks anyway. I was already using another project destination to keep my head safe but, since they were in the same project node in tfs, they were still keep listed in that and I was going crazy. Now, I deleted the old project folder through the source control and everything is perfect. Thanks again. – Beytan Kurt Mar 28 '12 at 23:15
