Needing to delete a bunch of closed SharePoint web parts, I dug up the following “nice one” trick : just add ?contents=1 to the URL of any web part page and it will render a checkbox multi-select list of web parts where you can Reset or Delete one or more web parts in a single go:
So you plunk in a name for a new Team Foundation project in Visual Studio’s team explorer, and at some point thereafter have a requirement to change the name of the project.
Short and long of it- as far as my look-see has taken me, you can’t: https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/554539/cant-rename-a-team-project-in-tfs-2010
You can however delete and start from scratch:
Full syntax is as follows:
Usage: TfsDeleteProject [/q] [/force] [/excludewss] /collection:<url> <team project name>
Deletes the Team Project from Team Foundation. To use this command, you must bea member of either the Team Foundation Server Administrators group or a member of the Project Administrators group for the project you are deleting. Use this command with caution because after deleting the team project it cannot be recovered.
[/q] – Do not prompt for confirmation.
[/force] – Continue even if some data cannot be deleted.
[/excludewss] – Exclude the project’s SharePoint site when deleting the project. This option will leave site intact so that it remains for other projects that may be using it.
/collection:<url> – The url for a Team Project Collection.
<team project name> – The name of the project. Use quotes if there are spacesin the name.
