I'm using Visual Studio 2013 with TFS for source control. When I open Team Explorer > Pending Changes and double-click on a changed file, the file opens in the editor. The only way to see my pending changes is to right-click and choose Compare with Workspace Version. This gets time-consuming for a long list of files.
Can I change the default double-click action to Compare with Workspace Version? (That seems to be the default when using Git, but not for TFS.)
Checked and that works:
The simple way is highlighting the file thenshift + double-click
instead.
To make the compare behavior as default, just copy/past below string in a .reg file and double click it to add the registry key. (Change the version accordingly based on your TFS version)
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\TeamFoundation\SourceControl\Behavior]
"DoubleClickOnChange"=dword:00000001
