如何在TFS 2010中编辑.sln文件？

Question

I need to delete several lines from the solution file (.sln). When changing .csproj files I can use "Unload project". But what is the proper way to edit .sln file in TFS?

Answer 1

最好的选择是关闭解决方案，然后使用文本编辑器（记事本或等效工具）。

Answer 2

You can use the TFS Powertools for that purpose. It enables you to make tfs-"operations" from the windows explorer (and edit the .sln file with an txteditor).

Answer 3

Another option is to copy the sln in Visual Studio as a temporary text file, and edit there. I used this to handle some changes like regex updates to the sln file, without having to use the VS UI to adjust tons of build processor changes (and without having to do it using a public online web tool). Once the text was updated, paste the new text back into the original sln file and save, using a tool like notepad, etc. VS will then tell you it needs to reload the new sln, and the changes will be loaded.
