Updated references to 9.0.0.0. Fixed exception when the Team Foundation Server can't be contacted.

CREATED FEATURE: Support custom naming of shelvesets

wbarthol — Sat, 06 Oct 2007 05:20:57 GMT

Allow the developer to optionally override how the shelvesets are named.

CREATED FEATURE: Support rolling shelvesets

wbarthol — Sat, 06 Oct 2007 05:20:09 GMT

Allow developers to optionally keep multiple shelvesets rather than overwriting one each time. For example, a developer could choose to keep 4 shelvesets per workspace. This would allow a developer to jump back to earlier versions of their pending changes if necessary.

CREATED FEATURE: Support specific workspaces as well as all workspaces

wbarthol — Sat, 06 Oct 2007 05:16:16 GMT

Allow developers to optionally name the workspaces they would like quickshelved.

CREATED FEATURE: Support remembering credentials

wbarthol — Sat, 06 Oct 2007 05:14:59 GMT

Developers should be able to choose to have the credentials remembered securely so they won't be prompted for them each time QuickShelve runs.

CREATED FEATURE: Support specific servers as well as all registered servers

wbarthol — Sat, 06 Oct 2007 05:13:25 GMT

Allow developers to choose between quickshelving all registered servers or a specific list of servers (which may or may not be registered).
