Unlike Git or Subversion, when you move your projects to a new path, say to organize your hard drive, you'll see this warning when you open your project.
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
Team Foundation Server Version Control
The solution you are opening is bound to source control on the following Azure DevOps Server: http://...collection. Would you like to contact this server to try to enable source control integration?
---------------------------
Yes No Help
---------------------------
Pressing Yes is useless. Right clicking your project gives you the option of adding it, not reconnecting it.
Here's the procedure to fix this issue.
- Close your solution.
- Close the What would you like to do? window.
- File -> Source Control -> Advanced -> Workspaces.
- You may see many workspaces in the list, highlight the one that matters.
- Edit.
- You will see a list of Source Control Folders connected to Local folders.
- Click on the Local Folder (you'll see the OLD location) and fix it to the new location.
- Repeat for all the solutions you want to fix.
- OK, Close
- Bob's your uncle. You can edit the project without the scary warning with the "fix" that doesn't work.
- (optional, but recommended) Ditch Azure Devops Because it's lame, and use Subversion or Git.
