Microsoft Branching Guidance

The kindest.

Scored a good text from the team of Microsoft Team Foundation Server: Branching Guidance
Future and current users of the designated system are invited to:

1. imbued with the importance of branching and merging changes to the work of large teams;
2. find out what types of branches are and how to build work isolation based on them;
3. look at practical examples of how to properly grow and loose changes.

An unexpected term of isolation is interesting, denoting the separation of some work flow using the selected branching technique. And it is separated from the concept of changeset. For details - in the article, the context will be clear what I mean. In general, the repetition of the truths about version control already described :) with the addition of instructions for using TFS.

Once again, it was confirmed that MS knows a lot about software development methodology :) because it not only provides a tool for competent SM, but also explains why such tools are needed at all.
