Here's the situation you're likely facing: you've been tasked to add a Visual Studio (VS) solution to an Team Foundation Server (TFS) as a Team Project (TP). You launched Visual Studio or the TFS Web interface, and then navigated to the TP in the Source Control Explorer. You dragged the solution folder from Windows Explorer into Source Control Explorer. The
Add to Source Control dialog appeared, but you notice the following:
- The Items to add tab says "(0)", indicating no items will be added
- All files are listed in the Exlcuded items tab
- The status message below the item tabs reads, "This item cannot be added because its destination path is cloaked"
- You are asking yourself, "What the heck is a cloaked path?"
You probably tried simply clicking the
Finish button instead of the
Next > button, but receive a message stating
, "No eligible items were found for addition."
Well, there is an easy solution for that!
