TFS: How to compare changesets between two branches

Question

How can I find changesets in Branch A that were not merged to branch B programmatically. This what Merge Window does in TFS client GUI but I need to programmatically get the list of changesets.

Say I have Microsoft.TeamFoundation.VersionControl.Client.Workspace reference.

Answer 1

You probably want the VersionControlServer.GetMergeCandidates() method. This gets the candidates for merging between two paths.

public MergeCandidate[] GetMergeCandidates(
    string sourcePath,
    string targetPath,
    RecursionType recursion
)
