Renaming the containing project folder in VS.net under TFS

Question

I have a vs.net project, and after some refactoring, have modified the name of the project. How can I easily rename the underlying windows folder name to match this new pro

Answer 1

My particular configuration is VS2010 connecting to TFS2008. I tried some of the other solutions here, but had problems. I found the following worked for me:-

1. Remove project in folder to be renamed from solution
2. Save solution
3. Rename folder containing removed project in TFS source control (this renames locally on your hard disk)
4. Add project back to the solution from the new location
5. Save solution
6. Commit to source control

Now, you'll have the folder rename and the solution re-map all committed under one changeset.
