TFS 2013 in VS reports no history for a file with multiple commits in Git -


tldr version: how work around or resolve tfs reporting single file has no history, when git , webportal report does, , clearing tfs cache has no effect?


disclaimer: have tried various methods in numerous stackoverflow posts regarding clearing of cache. date, has produced no results. hoping find different perspective on issue, if perspective indicates doing wrong.


lately, myself , coworker have been experiencing following seemingly pseudo-random symptoms:

  1. clone repository git, using git command line tools.
  2. in vs2013, right-click on file, , retrieve history. works.
  3. right-click on second file, , tfs behaves in 1 of 2 ways:

    1. display dialog message, "an item key has been added", , display message, "no history available item" in history window.
    2. simply display history window message "no history available item."

note once behavior appears file in solution, continues appear without relief. unable view history in way through visual studio. however, if go web portal, can see history fine, , can see history using normal git commands, such git log , git diff.

i've tried clearing git cache, using script shown in this visual studio forums article (note in arabic, , may require translation).

clearing cache had no effect on issue, though extended script cover versions of visual studio , tfs using, not running visual studio when ran it, , restarted computer afterwards (and before relaunching visual studio).

we tried deleting local repository , recloning scratch. had no effect, if first operation after clearing cache.

i not running team foundation server power tools, not contributing factor.

i using following software:

  • visual studio 2013 update 4
  • tfs version 12.0.31101.0, tfs 2013 update 4.
  • windows 8.1 64-bit
  • git windows 1.9.4

some team members access repository commandline both windows , mac.
