Associating a work item with a change set helps the rest
of the team understand the changes that you made. Also, if any further
change is made to the change set, the work item acts as a single placeholder
where all the changes are gathered for any future verification.
Change sets are displayed in the
Pending Changes tool
window. You can associate a work item with the change set from the
Outgoing folder.
To
associate a work item:
- In the Pending Changes tool window,
navigate to the change set in the Outgoing folder,
right-click the change set and click Associate Work Item.
- In the Select Work Items dialog box,
do one of the following tasks:
- If a work item is already created, enter the work item ID
or summary text in Containing id or text and
click OK.
- If you need to create a new work item, click Create
new work item. Enter the work item details and click OK.
You can now deliver the change set.
