This is an older post, but since the only given answer seems &quot;not entirely correct&quot; to me I&#39;d like to answer anyway: 
I blogged about this (in german) here: [blog.nils-andresen.de][1]

If you have a local copy, that you want to un-get or un-download like this:

![enter image description here][2]

simply right-click the folder and then click &quot;Get Specific Version&quot; or &quot;Advanced &gt; Get Specific Version&quot; and specify **Changeset 1**.

Here&#39;s why *from [Martin Woodward&#39;s TFS Top Tips](http://www.woodwardweb.com/tfs_top_tip/tfs_top_tip_11.html)*:

&gt; ...if you do a &quot;Get Specific Version...&quot; on the files, and select Changeset 1, the files will be deleted locally and the server will know this.  The color of the file in the Source Control explorer will go from black to gray and will have the phrase &quot;Not downloaded&quot; in the latest column.
&gt;
&gt; Changeset 1 is a special changeset on your Team Foundation Server instance.  It was created as part of the setup routine and only contains one thing - the root node ($/) in your source control tree. If you do a get for Changeset 1 on any actual files then they will not exist at that point in time on the system so will be deleted locally and the server will know this.


![Get Specific Version - dialog][3]

When the process is complete the &quot;Latest&quot;-column will show &quot;not downloaded&quot;.

![enter image description here][4]

After that any remaining files in the filesystem can safely be removed.

You can [cloak][1] the folder in your local workspace.

&gt; By setting the working folder status to Cloaked, you can specify that a local folder should not copy files from the server when you perform a Get operation. You might choose to do this to conserve space on your local disk. If you later decide that you need to get files in those cloaked folders, you must change the status to Active and then perform a Get operation.

I am having an issue with the anti-forgery token :(
I have created my own User class which worked fine but now I am getting an error whenever I go to the **/Account/Register** page. The error is:

&gt; A claim of type
&gt; &#39;http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/nameidentifier&#39;
&gt; or
&gt; &#39;http://schemas.microsoft.com/accesscontrolservice/2010/07/claims/identityprovider&#39;
&gt; was not present on the provided ClaimsIdentity. To enable anti-forgery
&gt; token support with claims-based authentication, please verify that the
&gt; configured claims provider is providing both of these claims on the
&gt; ClaimsIdentity instances it generates. If the configured claims
&gt; provider instead uses a different claim type as a unique identifier,
&gt; it can be configured by setting the static property
&gt; AntiForgeryConfig.UniqueClaimTypeIdentifier.


I found this article:

http://stack247.wordpress.com/2013/02/22/antiforgerytoken-a-claim-of-type-nameidentifier-or-identityprovider-was-not-present-on-provided-claimsidentity/

so I changed my **Application_Start** method to this:

    protected void Application_Start()
    {
        AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();

        FilterConfig.RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilters.Filters);
        RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
        BundleConfig.RegisterBundles(BundleTable.Bundles);

        AntiForgeryConfig.UniqueClaimTypeIdentifier = ClaimTypes.Email;
    }

but when I do that, I get this error: 

&gt; A claim of type
&gt; &#39;http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/emailaddress&#39;
&gt; was not present on the provided ClaimsIdentity.

Has anyone come across this before? If so, do you know how to solve it?

I profile is just simple for my repositories, looks like this:

It used to be decorated with the **[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]** attribute, but that is where it stopped working.

Why?


Anti-forgery token issues

I&#39;m trying to run a Python script from PHP using the following command:

`exec(&#39;/usr/bin/python2.7 /srv/http/assets/py/switch.py arg1 arg2&#39;);`

However, PHP simply doesn&#39;t produce any output. Error reporting is set to E_ALL and display_errors is on.

Here&#39;s what I&#39;ve tried:

 - I used `python2`, `/usr/bin/python2` and `python2.7` instead of `/usr/bin/python2.7`
 - I also used a relative path instead of an absolute path which didn&#39;t change anything either.
 - I tried using the commands `exec`, `shell_exec`, `system`.

However, if I run

    if (exec(&#39;echo TEST&#39;) == &#39;TEST&#39;)
    {
        echo &#39;exec works!&#39;;
    }

it works perfectly fine while `shutdown now` doesn&#39;t do anything.

PHP has the permissions to access and execute the file.

EDIT: Thanks to Alejandro, I was able to fix the problem. If you have the same problem, don&#39;t forget that your webserver probably/hopefully doesn&#39;t run as root. **Try logging in as your webserver&#39;s user or a user with similar permissions and try to run the commands yourself.**

Running a Python script from PHP

I&#39;m part of a large project mapped from TFS, within that project there is a folder which I have finished working on. I don&#39;t want that folder anymore so I&#39;d like to delete my local copy. The problem is that TFS wants to mirror the change and delete the folder from source control, I don&#39;t want to remove it from TFS.

The only way I can find to do this is to unmap the workspace, and then go through and get all the other folders I need to work on.

Is there anyway I can just delete that folder locally?

There are tons of questions and answers about Git versus TFVC Source Control, but no current answers cover the integration of Git into Team Foundation Server/Service that I can find.   

I&#39;m starting green pasture development using a wide variety of languages (C#, C++, PHP, Javascript, MySSQL) using Visual Studio 2013. In the future, there will be some iOS development. I&#39;m very familiar with SVN, VSS and TFVC for source control. However, I have never used Git. I prefer TFS for process management/agile development... It&#39;s not perfect, but it integrates well into Visual Studio.

So, to help me decide between these two systems...

### What are the big differences between TFVC and Git for source control when using Visual Studio 2013?  

* Is the only benefit in my case a local repository (not saying that it&#39;s insignificant) and iOS development support?
* Is the only drawback to Git the command line interface (some would argue that&#39;s not a drawback ;-P).
* Have you experienced in the Visual Studio 2013 GUI for Git? Is that enough to support basic branching/merging without the command line interface?
* Is there a detailed start-up guide for Git that shows Git being used with Visual Studio 2013? Microsoft has a video for integrating an existing Git repository into Visual Studio 2013, but I&#39;m looking for a start from scratch with Git and VS 2013.

I am not looking for a book here, but just a few bullet points and maybe some relevant links from folks that have used both TFVC and Git.

What are the big differences between TFVC (TFS Version Control) and Git for source control when using Visual Studio 2013?

I am using Visual Studio 2012 with TFS.
Whenever I want to compare my checked out files, I have two options to choose from:

 1. Compare with workspace version
 2. Compare with latest version

CodeLens stopped working for some reason in project solution that I&#39;m dealing nowadays.  It is not showing references instead &quot;- references&quot;.  However, when I open up Visual Studio with another project It works like charm.I can confirm that CodeLens is enabled. Do you have any idea to make it work?

CodeLens not showing references

I&#39;m trying to get TFS (2013) to ignore my `packages` folder. I passionately don&#39;t want it source controlled as I&#39;m using NuGet and it&#39;s great!

I&#39;ve tried cloaking (doesn&#39;t seem to work), I&#39;ve tried adding `.tfignore` files - nothing is ignored. Why don&#39;t the TFS team just add an option to permanently ignore a folder or file like lots of the Subversion clients do?!

Get TFS to ignore my packages folder

When I do a Get Latest in Visual Studio, if there are conflicts, there is nothing that is displayed to me to make it obvious. Invariably I think everything is OK, do a build, and often the build works.

The onus is always on me to remember to look for conflicts, to open the Conflicts window.
Is there any way to make VS get in my face, and tell me that there is now a conflict?
