To use the configure command, you must have the Edit server-level information permission set to Allow. For more information, see Default TFVC permissions.

tf configure [PathOfTeamProject] [/collection:TeamProjectCollectionUrl][/login:username,[password]]

Parameters

Argument

Argument Description
<PathOfTeamProject> Path of the project whose configuration settings an administrator can view or change.
<TeamProjectCollectionUrl> The URL of the project collection that contains the project that you specified, for example http://myserver:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection).

Remarks

You can manage the following project settings by using the configure command:

  • Check-out Settings determine whether multiple users can edit files at the same time. You can also use them to configure the get latest on check-out behavior.

  • Check-in Policies provide controls that are invoked at check-in time, to make sure that defined criteria are met before a user checks in pending changes.

  • Check-in Notes define custom fields where users provide information during the check-in process. Check-in notes can be either required or optional.

For more information about these settings, see Walkthrough: Customizing Checkin Policies and Notes.

You configure the settings in the Visual Studio Source Control Settings dialog box, which appears after you run the tf configure command. When you complete your changes, select OK to save them.

For more information on how to use the tf command-line utility, see Use Team Foundation version control commands.

Note

Administrators can also access the Source Control Settings dialog box from the Visual Studio Team Explorer window. Select Settings, and then select Source Control under Team Project.
