Team System Version Control: 0-100km 
Tuesday, May 27, 2008 at 6:15 PM 
Conférencier: Barry Gervin, Regional Director Toronto et MVP Team System
Note: Cette présentation sera en anglais

Version Control is a natural place to start with Team System. So with that in mind, why not spend an evening with Barry Gervin, MS Regional Director and VSTS MVP as he tells stories of failure and success from his experiences helping companies migrate to Team System. Along the way he will share his ideas for good version control hygiene, techniques for handling project to project dependencies, branching & merging scenarios, evil VSTS “gotcha’s”, inner workings, working offline, and check-in policies. Come to this event and you’ll learn the answers to mysterious questions such as: “what is a workspace anyway?”, “will the Leafs ever win the cup again?” , “how come my get latest didn’t?”, and “who the heck wrote that line code?”
