TFS为发行版创建构建脚本

Question

I want to be able to set up a semi automatic Build script to check out a specific commit from our TFS server to a non generic folder to then cause the code to be built and packaged to enable a release.

I understand how to use the command line, and can script it fine, but its how to create a temporary workspace that will not interfere with the existing workspace on the machine to check the code out into.

I will have to research how to build the solution as well from the commandline but that may not be as hard as this...

You can use the command line tool tf.exe to create a new workspace eg:

tf workspace /new workspace_name`;username /collection:http://myserver:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection

You can get work folder mappings by using a template when creating the new workspace. See the /template parameter on tf workspace . Or you can use the tf workfold /map command to create work folder mappings for the new workspace. When you're done, use tf workspace /delete to delete the workspace.
