我如何在TFS中获得自动合并注释

Question

In source control systems and tools like tortoises for svn or sourcetree for git, when I am committing a merge, I can usually just left a default comment generated by the tool that is basically a summary of what changes were merged. In visual studio using TFS, there is a comment textbox right above the changes list, but I have to type it all manually. It's not super important but it is a time saver sometimes. Maybe i'm just not looking at the right place.

Answer 1

If you're using TFS with Git, then this becomes less of an issue. When you merge all the individual commits come along for the ride, so it's not necessary to re-describe them in the merge commit.

Answer 2

I have used TFS a lot, and unfortunately I don't think that option exists. I usually copy my original checkin text and then paste it if I am doing multiple merges. I realize this is a low tech way to do it and the original comment isn't generated for me. If you want to be able to do this bad enough, you can probably write a Visual Studio plug in that would do it for you, or you could code up just about anything you want to add with the Team Foundation Server SDK.

Answer 3

Try extension Auto Merge

If you need set original comment setup Settings "comment_format" like {{OriginalComment}}
