I just started using the npm package gulp-sass which relies on node-sass.
The node-sass package has a src folder, which includes a .sln file.
This .sln file shows up under my VS2015 Team Explorer Solutions heading. I really don't want that to happen.
Is there a way to exclude solutions placed under "node_modules" from being shown in the Team Explorer?
See attachment for documentation.
For TFVC, when you open the VS, then Visual Studio will scan the local workspace for solution files.
According to your screenshot, you are using GIT as your source control. This should be the same mechanism. VS will scan your local mapping repository. Unless you move the folders in your local repository, the solutions from node_modules will still shown in Team Explorer.
If you really can't stand this feature, you may have to create a "dummy" repository for some folders including sln file on your machine and let Team Explorer scan that one every time you start up, instead.

We have a directory in TFS (a team project) where all our internals and third parties DLL are referenced. It's works great, all our project references these directory.
When I configure an automatic build of my project, I would like that TFS automatically download the latest version of this directory, before TFS do my build. I could configure it?
By the way: We use VS2012 and TFS2012.
Thank you.
In a XAML build, map the TFVC folder where those assemblies are stored under the "Source Settings" tab.
I have a project which i have copied from a different completed project,and refactored the package name. after the refactoring and sync was complete android studio asked me whether i wanted to add the newly created files to subversion. i remembered that my previous project was shared through subversion. so i went ahead and disabled the vcs integration for my current project to prevent any accidental modification to my previous project. but now whenever i enable vcs integration on my current project, i am not able to share it as a new project through subversion. i think android studio is holding onto the url of the previous project. so my question is how can i change this? i want to share my newly created project as a new one through subversion. how can it be done?
i remember when i used eclipse, i was used to deleting the CVS directories from my newly created projects which are copied from other ones, and it worked flawlessly. is there any way like this with android studio?
thank you.
I got my answer eventually. the trick was to delete the .svn directory hidden in the root folder of my project. deleting that directory gave the prefect result. and i was able to share my project as a new one through subversion.
we set up Git as version control system (we used tfs before). Now the source control explorer is not available anymore.
I found this thread from 2013:
Using Git in Visual Studio, how do I navigate repository files?
It's 2015 now and I cannot find any info from late 2014 or 2015. Does anybody know something new?
Thanks
VS2015 still does not have a file browser for Git projects. They do have a list of *.sln files that can be opened within a Git repo. If you have say a "ReadMe.txt" at the root level of the repo though, you still need to open it in explorer or command line and modify it (either by adding to VS or elsewhere), then the file will show up in pending.
In VS2012, there was an add in called "Mindscape File Explorer" that added a file explorer. You could set the root directory to your projects folder and save you from leaving VisualStudio.
Apparently no one at Microsoft cares about solving this problem since it's been around for years now. Seems like it would be an easy win to just show all files at the project root level in either the solution tab or a new project view tab.
Visual Studio "15" Preview has an "Open Folder" feature that let's you load up any folder in the Solution Explorer but it's not connected with Source Control, you have to do it manually after you've connected with the repository in Team Explorer but it's better than nothing.
You can right-click the file to access History, Commit, Compare with unmodified, Undo, Go to git changes... etc
I have installed a nuget package to my project that is in TFS but now i want to undo this operation but undoing the operation will undo the edition in the project file but if i do this then other files that i have been added in the project will not be added.
How can i undo this without loosing the other files association to the project?
Open the project file in a text editor, remove the references you do not require.
Edit the packages file and remove the line for the package you want to remove
This is for those who come across this answer and try it (like I did). It doesn't work (anymore, maybe it did on a VS 2013 or older?). If you do this in e.g. VS2019 a XAML design window will show Some Assembly References are missing instead. No further useful info of course, VS never does give that.
In VS2019, just right click on the project in the Solution Explorer and select Manage NuGet Packages. Check the package you want to delete (project + package name) and click the delete button. This works without these errors.
So I'm using Artifactory to host my NuGet packages and we have 2 different repos for 2 different solutions.
Each solution has a local Nuget.config file that adds its own source right after running the command (which doesn't seem to work in VS) and disables the standard Nuget feed.
The problem is that if I open the Package Manager Settings in visual studio, choose the package sources sub section and click ok, VS will then save that custom repo in the %appdata%/Nuget/Nuget.config file. So now when I open the other solution it will see both repositories.
Thanks for reporting the issue. Ported it over to codeplex as https://nuget.codeplex.com/workitem/3794. Thanks.
