Thanks Brian.  A few more questions:

I have DEV, QA, Stage, and Live environments.  Using a basic or standard
branching strategy, when configuring automatic builds/deployments should
deploying to DEV get code from the MAIN branch to the DEV Server.  Then if I
want code to go to QA, should bits on the DEV Server go to QA Server?  Then
get bits from QA Server to Stage?  And finally from Stage to Live?  So once
code goes from TFS to DEV it's just a matter of moving source code from each
Server to the next?

Or is it typical to grab code from DEV branch to go to DEV Server and then
move code to each Server as described above?

Thanks for any tips given...

Oscar
