Hi all,

I have got Team Foundation Server up and running and have to say I am
very impressed. I have a couple of questions however which I am sure
will have simple answers:

A)  Solution Management

I have a decent sized solution (32 projects) which I have checked into
the repository.  Other users who need to use the entire solution can
obviously do so by simply opening the .sln file and then the projects
are imported into their workspace.

However a lot of the time people do not need (or want) all of these
projects on their machine. They would just want to pull down the
projects that they are working with along with any referenced projects
not necessarily the whole solution.  What is the best way to achieve
this? I have had a play and looked online and there doesn't seem to be
a simple answer.  Any guidelines or thoughts would be appreciated.

Also is it possible that when projects are pulled down the other
projects they reference remain on the repository? i.e. a project
reference located in the repository. I can understand if this is not
possible as it would make sense if that doesn't work.

B) To branch or not to branch...

Is it recommended for each of my colleagues to work with their own
branch and when they are happy with their code merge it with the main
trunk?  Or is it best to just to all work on the same and check in at
the end of each day for nightly builds?

Sorry for the stupid questions ;) Thanks in advance for your
assistance.

Kind Regards,
Mark
