So, at least I want to be sure, I can switch between DEV to feature branch and back without exception and I don't want to loose files accidently. It is what I want eventually to achieve, which cannot be done with Git as I understood. I want to able to switch between feature branch to DEV and in source control pane to see no files, because I didn't do any updates in DEV. For instance, I don't want to see added files from DEV-AddedFiles branch in, let's say, DEV-UpdatedFiles. Once it switched I would like to see in the Source Control Pane files that belong to corresponded branch only. I want to be able to switch between DEV to DEV-UpdatedFiles or DEV-AddedFiles or DEV-DeletedFiles without exception similar the ones I explained before or at least to understand why it happens.

Let's say I have branch DEV, DEV-UpdatedFiles, DEV-AddedFiles, DEV-DeletedFiles. I just try to figure out how to use git with branches without causing any errors. 'if you want to keep them' - it is not exactly what I want. What might be the problem here? vs-general sharepoint-dev However, I cannot switch to the folder where these files belong to. DEV doesn't have this Omers.Embed folder and for sure for DEV, it is untracked.

When I try to switch it to feature branch I am getting next message As you can see, it also shows me a lot of untracked files from another branch in Source Control which should not be there. However, it is not the case or at least I am missing some fundamental knowledge of how Visual Studio Code is working with Git and DevOps.įollowing the snapshot of the Visual Studio Code, I have opened.

When I look at the DevOps files are stored correctly.Īs you see feature branch contains folder that is not in DEV, which what I expect.įrom my previous experience with MSFT I would expect the same would be in VS Code. I have 2 branches: DEV and DEV-ScriptEditorWebPart.ĭEV is the branch where all the final version of the code are add to deploy to DEV environment for testing.ĭEV-ScriptEditorWebPart is feature branch where new code is generated. I came to Git world from MSFT and try to understand how to handle the branching in Git. I am a little bit confused how branching is working in Visual Studio Code with Git.
