Unified Diff in TFS

Question

Anyone know if this (generating a unified diff) is possible and if so, how?

Thanks.

Answer 1

It's tf diff /shelveset:<set> /format:unified. However, note that unlike most modern version-control systems, TFS can't actually work with patch files afaik. That is, you can't take the result of the diff and apply it to a set of files to get the resulting changes. (What most people do is zip up the files that changed and drop-and-replace that as a "patch". Ick.)
