For those who have been eagerly waiting for it, it's come as an early
Christmas present.

 

And for those who don't know what it is - it's a source control plugin
for non-VS2005 clients (e.g. VS2003) that allows them to connect to TFS
source control. So now there's no reason to still be using source safe.

*       Enable handling branched solutions in Visual Studio 2003.
(hooray for DevDiv!!)
*       Fixed issues to enable provider to support TOAD for SQL Server
2.0.
*       Enhanced the "Choose Folder in Team Foundation Server" dialog.
(hooray!)
*       Fixed bug which prevented Properties Dialog from displaying
local path.
*       Work Items Query list in the Checkin Dialog is loaded and saved
on the disk.
*       "Get" operation performance improvements.
*       Miscellaneous bug fixes

The biggest improvement is in the area of branched projects.  The
experience is still not perfect but it is dramatically better than it
was.  The one issue that remains is that the first time you open a
project/solution after branching it, you need to use Open from Source
Control (can also be done by double clicking on it in the Source Control
Explorer) rather than opening it from your local hard drive.  This has
to do with the way the underlying MSSCCI infrastructure works in Visual
Studio and allows VS to fix up some of its references.
