VS 2013-如何在解决方案资源管理器中跟踪文件更改？

Question

I'm using git from the command line (cygwin). When I checkout older commits or change branches, the solution explorer doesn't update to match the new files that have been created/deleted. How can I make visual studio refresh to reflect the file changes?

I have the settings "Detect when file is changed outside the environment" and "Auto-load changes, if saved" enabled, but they don't seem to help. The button "show all files" will show files that were introduced but doesn't remove files that are now gone.

Answer 1

As I noted in my comment there is an open defect against the behavior you would like to achieve.

Update : First option:

In the meantime , try to install a vs2013 extension to handle it.

I recommend 2 extension that may help you:

1. Git Source Control Provider
2. Workspace Reloader

I hope it will address your need.

Update : the second option is to use vs2013 integrated git tools
